A jackaroo from Western Australia is expecting to be up and about shortly after doctors replaced one of his thumbs with his big toe, reports the BBC.
20-year-old Zac Mitchell was injured in Apr on a remote property when a bull kicked his hand into a fence, unfortunately detaching the digit.
Even though his co-workers quickly put the thumb into an esky, two operations to reattach it were unsuccessful so doctors instead tried the toe graft at the Sydney Eye Hospital this month.
The transplant looks to have worked, and although Mitchell will require a year of rehabilitation he plans to eventually return to farm work.
You can't beat stupidity.
Police in Florida, USA managed to crack a case fairly easily last week after a self-described drug dealer called 911 to report a bag of cocaine which had been stolen from his vehicle.
Officers responding to the incident found 32-year-old David Blackmon complaining about the theft of the drugs - and then they spotted some more drugs and a crack pipe on the floor of the car.
Blackmon was charged with possession of cocaine and resisting arrest.
