Hi, guys, Ayshah here to tell you how many	:00:00.	:00:00.
Plus why this monkey selfie has caused a big row.	:00:00.	:00:09.
But first to the fight to stop the outbreak of a virus called Ebola.	:00:10.	:00:20.
The outbreak started back in February nearly 4000 miles away	:00:21.	:00:23.
in Guinea, but has spread to other parts of Africa.	:00:24.	:00:26.
Today health experts from across the world are meeting to try to work	:00:27.	:00:29.
Here in west Africa health experts are teaching villagers about Ebola.	:00:30.	:00:37.
They want to show people living here how to keep themselves safe.	:00:38.	:00:41.
It is part of the attempt to stop what has become the biggest	:00:42.	:00:45.
Ebola is spread through contact with infected bodily fluids	:00:46.	:00:53.
like saliva and blood and there is no known vaccine to prevent it.	:00:54.	:00:58.
It was in Guinea the first cases of the outbreak were found.	:00:59.	:01:02.
The virus has spread to four other African countries and nearly	:01:03.	:01:06.
I have just got back from a town in South East Guinea where	:01:07.	:01:15.
It is a very remote area full of traditional communities.	:01:16.	:01:22.
Many families do not have radios or TVs and many	:01:23.	:01:25.
There is a lot of fear around this virus.	:01:26.	:01:31.
When people get sick they get sick very quickly.	:01:32.	:01:33.
But some people do like 13-year-old Alphonse.	:01:34.	:01:42.
He came to see his sister who doctors were worried	:01:43.	:01:45.
She has pulled through and is doing much better.	:01:46.	:01:51.
Doctors have to look after patients in special protective gear so they	:01:52.	:01:54.
The way to stop an outbreak is to find people who are sick and make	:01:55.	:02:01.
There is lots more going on to make sure the disease does not	:02:02.	:02:08.
In Lagos people are being tested as they arrive in the country and	:02:09.	:02:14.
some airlines have cancelled flights to Liberia and Sierra Leone.	:02:15.	:02:20.
Health experts believe the disease can be brought under	:02:21.	:02:23.
control and they are meeting in Switzerland at the moment to	:02:24.	:02:27.
A new report suggests that kids are as good at using mobile phones	:02:28.	:02:38.
The yearly report by communications watchdog Ofcom	:02:39.	:02:41.
found that six-year-olds have the same understanding of mobile	:02:42.	:02:43.
And it found that people in Britain spend more time online than they do	:02:44.	:02:49.
We all like to take a quick selfie but when	:02:50.	:02:55.
this monkey grabbed a photographer's camera to take this picture it	:02:56.	:02:58.
Normally photographers charge people for using snaps they've taken.	:02:59.	:03:02.
But the website Wikimedia has been using this one without paying for it	:03:03.	:03:06.
because they say the monkey took the picture and not the photographer.	:03:07.	:03:10.
He's angry and is trying to get the site to take the picture down.	:03:11.	:03:16.
It's the summer holidays and just think of all those lessons	:03:17.	:03:18.
Yep, a school in Bolton is one of the only ones in the country to	:03:19.	:03:26.
Newsrounder Kelisha got a bit of a taster of how it all works.	:03:27.	:03:36.
Hi, I'm Kalesha and I'm actually fishing at school.	:03:37.	:03:42.
It's in the summer holidays at the moment and we are	:03:43.	:03:45.
on an activity day, but we will also be fishing in term time as well.	:03:46.	:03:50.
My school in Bolton has its own lake next to the school.	:03:51.	:03:54.
They even have their own fishing team.	:03:55.	:03:57.
Why do we learn about fishing at school?	:03:58.	:04:00.
It teaches you things we cannot teach you in the classroom.	:04:01.	:04:03.
No matter how much you get angry or shout at that fishing rod,	:04:04.	:04:09.
In the classroom you can show those skills you learn out here and	:04:10.	:04:16.
An angling coach teaches us the skills.	:04:17.	:04:34.
How difficult is it to start fishing?	:04:35.	:04:37.
There are clubs that have coaching and other organisations	:04:38.	:04:42.
like the Scouts and guides do fishing as well.	:04:43.	:04:46.
The gear you need would probably cost you less than ?20.	:04:47.	:05:00.
There are always plenty more fish in the sea or lake.	:05:01.	:05:07.
And from fish to previously extinct birds making a bit of a comeback.	:05:08.	:05:11.
Cranes disappeared completely from the UK for hundreds	:05:12.	:05:14.
of years but experts started a special project to breed them	:05:15.	:05:18.
which involved dressing up as the animals to make them feel safe.	:05:19.	:05:22.
Another load of baby birds will be released into the wild today	:05:23.	:05:25.
We hope by 2020 by two have at least 20 breeding pairs in the South West	:05:26.	:05:43.
of England. We are optimistic it will be achieved.	:05:44.	:05:44.
of England. We are optimistic it will be achieved.	:05:45.	:05:46.
Finally to the amazing train rescue with a difference.	:05:47.	:05:48.
This man slipped getting on board the underground	:05:49.	:05:50.
in Australia and trapped his leg between the train and the platform.	:05:51.	:05:53.
So all the passengers got off, pushed the train to one side	:05:54.	:05:57.
Newsround is back at 9.30 with this gold Ferrari.	:05:58.	:06:17.
