IT turns out it's not just the modern alpha-male who finds the scent of Calvin Klein's Obsession cologne attractive.

Wildlife authorities in India are considering the idea of using the trademark scent to lure in a tiger said to have killed at least nine people in the town of Pandharkawada.

According to officials, the synthetic version of the musk scent in the perfume is the key drawcard for the animals, which has already been used to catch at least two other tigers in India.

Chanel No 5 was also said to work in the same way, however wildlife official Sunil Limaye says he prefers the cheaper option "because Chanel is too costly."

Point well taken - one might say he'd earned his stripes.

Meanwhile, a tiny webbed gecko has caused chaos in a Hawaiian seal hospital after it made a "bazillion" direct calls to hospital director, Claire Simeone.

Upon answering, Simeone was greeted with silence - an incident that was repeated nine more times before Simeone, finally worried enough to go searching, located the cheeky dialler clamped happily to the key pad of a fellow colleague's phone.

All's well that ends well - after calling in his favour, the gecko was safely returned to his rightful home among the outdoor plants.
