Summary

After the success of their Dumb, Dumber, Dumbest series, the unflappable veterans of the strange news beat -- John Kohut and Roland Sweet -- have come back to their readers with Strange Tails, a collection of true news events chronicling the bizarre, wacky, hilarious, and sometimes heartwarming behavior of animals. After reading more than three hundred unbelievable tales, readers will never look at animals -- let alone their pets -- in the same way again.
