New survey finds Park Animals fear the extinction of their species

October 29, 2011 By TMD Reporters

A new survey conducted by The Park’s Department of Well-Being and Safety indicates that species extinction is one of Park Animals’ greatest fears.

The fear that their kind will be wiped out within the next few decades topped a list of anxieties that included, among other problems, Small Ball Fever, Human encroachment on The Park, flood, famine, and loss of distinctive markings.

The Mammalian Daily plans a full investigation of the findings in the coming weeks.

Inktvis and Krake perform at annual Snowbird sendoff

October 13, 2011 By Aednat Eilifint, TMD Arts and Entertainment Reporter

Inktvis and Krake, the current darlings of The Park’s musical scene, performed before a packed crowd at last night’s Snowbird Farewell. The pair played alongside The Canary Cousins and the rap group, The Tweeters, marking the first time in Park history that non-Avian musicians have been invited to perform at the annual festival.

“We were delighted that they accepted [our invitation],” said Arabella Hawk, spokesBird for the yearly event.  “The more species that come out to participate in our celebration, the more the Avian citizens of The Park feel the love. It helps us to know that we’ll be welcome when we return in the Spring.”

The aquatic pair performed a selection of songs and instrumentals from their earlier recordings as well as their current hit, 3 Hearts, 1 Head. As the festival drew to a close, they returned to the stage to sing backup for The Canary Cousins during their encore of Life is Tweet.

PIFF Opening Gala sets scene for successful 7th Festival

October 2, 2011 By Aednat Eilifint, TMD Arts and Entertainment Reporter

PIFF organizers appeared jubilant last night, as they gathered outside The Park Cinema following the screening of the festival’s opening film, Naked, Toothless, and Blind.  Alongside them, celebrities and reporters stood, dodging flashbulbs and waving to the adoring crowd.

“It’s been an uphill battle all year,” said PIFF Communications President, Leola Ocelot, referring not just to funding problems but to the fact that several films that were scheduled to debut here were still in the shooting stage when the 2011 list was announced.

“In the end, though, everything worked out perfectly and it looks as though this is going to be our most successful festival yet,” she concluded.

On the red carpet, flashing freshly-whitened teeth and swishing tails adorned with carefully-placed rhinestones , NT and B‘s twin stars Anders and Frederikke Egern answered reporters’ questions in between chatting with their film’s producers, Etienne Escurel and Mabbina Marmot.

The 7th Annual Park Interspecial Film Festival continues until October 5.  A total of thirty films will be screened at venues across The Park.
