From Around the World

From around the world:

In Australia they are proposing a new law forbidding people to go within a 100 metres of a dead whales carcuss.

This law is in Australia as there are sharks in Australian waters. The sharks want to feed on the dead whale which would make it very dangerous for someone to be near it

In Singapore bungee jumping is illegal.

Singapore used to have quite a lot of laws like this but they are lifting many of thm nowadays as a bid to encourage tourism in the country.

Raising a pig on Israeli soil will result in the murder of said pig.

In Judaism it is not Kosher to eat the meat of a pig. This law is in place because the main religion of Israel is Judaism and there would be no point in raising these animals as it is the governments opinion that they would do no good for the country. So although it may be irrelevant for people living in other countrys it is what th government thinks is best for this country based on the religion and culture.
