    Man-eating badgers

    British forces have denied rumours that they released a plague of ferocious badgers into the Iraqi city of Basra.

    Word spread among the populace that UK troops had introduced strange man-eating, bear-like beasts into the area to sow panic.

    ......

    One housewife, Suad Hassan, 30, claimed she had been attacked by one of the badgers as she slept.

    "My husband hurried to shoot it but it was as swift as a deer," she said. "It is the size of a dog but his head is like a monkey," she told AFP.

                BBC Reporter: "This is the latest plan by the British Army Badger Division. Unleash amorous squaddies in full badger-suit camo gear on suspected terrorists 'Desperate Housewifes'! The plan is to draw out their husbands who can then be picked up by the Wild Boar Division hiding in the undergrowth.

                Sgt. El Duder told us, "It's going pretty well really. Some irate husband with the head of a monkey took some pot shots at one of our boys last night, but it goes with the job. We get confused for deer sometimes too. I like the missions personally, I tend to have no luck with the women at home. You don't meet many people answering phones all day. The badger costume's coming home with me, I can tell you!"
