China retains ownership of all the giant pandas around the world, which are selectively loaned to other countries. The fee for a pair is usually $1 million a year, with funds going toward conservation efforts in China. Rentals typically last for 10 years, with a renewal option.

Scientists can grow bacon from stem cells.

That's nothing, pigs can grow bacon merely out of plants and dead animals

Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Cochran Seaman) was a writer, charity worker, and fearless journalist who took a record-breaking trip around the world in 72 days and pioneered a new kind of investigative journalism when she faked insanity to study a mental institution from within. She stayed for 10 days to inform the public of the horrors inside.

There is a deep sea octopus species, Graneledone boreopacifica, that cares for eggs for 53 months, apparently not eating during this time, then dies. This brooding period is the longest known for any animal. This octopus was observed in the Monterey Canyon by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
