Who says sports are only for humans?
If you think that 2020 has already gone crazier than the previous years, you might want to consider that we are not the only ones who can participate in sports. There are also others who want to join the sports in their own ways - the animals.
Each year, surprises never fail to amaze the people. This year, cats and dogs are the protagonists of a man's show. If you think 2020 is getting weirder as it nears to finish, wait for some more animal invasion in sports.
In September, it was a typical day of training for the Brazilian women's team. Moments later, a blue macaw landed on defender Bruna Benites' head when the second half began.
You might think that a colorful bird wants to build a nest in an athlete's head, but the macaw did not know how far can popularity take itself in the internet. Football fans immediately saw the picture and the blue macaw was named after one of the greatest footballers of all time, "Pele," who was also a Brazilian.
Since then, no one would have thought how on earth did that little bird regularly attend the men's and women's team training.
Another scenario of a bird invasion resembles a scene from "The Penguins of Madagascar." Would you believe that Kowalski, Rico Skipper, and Private roamed the Soldier Field in late November?
That's enough for the animation, but let me tell you that these four penguins from Shedd Aquarium in Chicago have real names: Charlotte, Darwin, Izzy, and Tombo. They are the 'football' penguins who wobbled around the locker room of the Chicago Bears. Their entrance to the field was perfect and their actions were very much similar to the Chicago team's logo.
With two stories now that occupied the animal invasion in sports, the reptiles would like to leave some words to the avians. A strong message like 'You are not the only one who's hyped for fun' is the message from our cold-blooded buddies.
It has something to do with a huge alligator that traversed the Valencia Golf and Country Club in Florida. Imagine if you are the golfer who saw that giant 'Godzilla' trekking the whole, green course. Would you feel the same as Tyler Stolting?
When club professional Tyler Stolting witnessed how a creeping 'dinosaur' crawled on the field, he grew amazed and said "I've never seen one even close to that big before."
Wait, there's one left in the box. December was intended for the South African Open, and the European tour participants look forward to bagging another award for their country. The event was smooth until a parade of walking safari took over the land.
There are several monkeys who ate scrapes, and some sat on fences. The mongooses and impalas surveyed the golf course. Some birds are also seen watching other participating animals in the South African Open.
For the majority of the spectators, seeing animals invading the sports are amusing to watch. But in reality, humans have to deal with their actions of taking care of the animals' habitats. That is what the animals want not because they cannot speak, but because they are searching for a place where they are safe and away from a foreign invasion of humans.
