It is Friday afternoon and you are watching newsround. We have plenty

:00:00.:00:11.

to tell you about. I am finding out how to stay safe

:00:12.:00:15.

around dogs. And find out why scientists are

:00:16.:00:19.

giving praying Mantis is the glasses!

:00:20.:00:22.

But first, the RSPCA says it's concerned about the rising number of

:00:23.:00:24.

children in England being taken to hospital because of dog bites. The

:00:25.:00:28.

animal charity says more should be done to teach people, particularly

:00:29.:00:31.

young kids, how to behave around dogs. Leah has more.

:00:32.:00:39.

Dogs can be loads of fun. They can feel like our friends, be great to

:00:40.:00:43.

play with and can even become part of the family. But, sometimes if we

:00:44.:00:47.

don't know what we're doing around them - things can go wrong. Over the

:00:48.:00:52.

past five years in England, the number of people going into hospital

:00:53.:00:56.

for dog bites and injuries has gone up. Getting a serious bite from a

:00:57.:00:59.

dog is still really rare, but it's kids aged nine and under who are

:01:00.:01:10.

most at risk. I was walking with my friends and the dog ran after me.

:01:11.:01:16.

You should ask owners before you/ them. I was on my bacon and this dog

:01:17.:01:22.

chased me around the park. The order call it back but it scared me. If

:01:23.:01:27.

you/view. It may not be very friendly and it could make you. Many

:01:28.:01:32.

children don't know how to react around dogs, the cab pick-up at the

:01:33.:01:39.

dog is anxious. Think the dog is smiling when in fact it is a warning

:01:40.:01:44.

sign that the dog is getting into attack mode. What advice would you

:01:45.:01:50.

give to children? Do not panic. Don't make any big movements. Like

:01:51.:01:55.

running or approach the dog. Stay still. Do not look the dog in the

:01:56.:02:01.

eye and back off very slowly. With summer in the way more and more of

:02:02.:02:04.

us will be out and about so it is more important that we learn how to

:02:05.:02:07.

behave around our funny friends. Next, the UK is to get one of the

:02:08.:02:10.

biggest, most advanced polar research ships in the world, it's

:02:11.:02:13.

been announced today. Costing ?200 million, it'll be a major upgrade

:02:14.:02:16.

over Britain's two current icebreakers like this one. It'll

:02:17.:02:19.

have a helipad, onboard laboratories, and the ability to

:02:20.:02:23.

send out submarines. But why is this so important? Is a big investment

:02:24.:02:34.

but it is important because the polar regions are changing so fast

:02:35.:02:38.

at that matters to all of us goes this can affect the weather, the

:02:39.:02:43.

level of the sea, wildlife, it can create new shipping routes across

:02:44.:02:47.

the roof of the world. To understand that you can just use the

:02:48.:02:50.

satellite, any ships to get in there.

:02:51.:02:52.

Next, it's looking less and less likely that anyone will be able to

:02:53.:02:55.

climb the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, this year. An

:02:56.:02:58.

avalanche last week killed sixteen local guides, known as Sherpas and

:02:59.:03:01.

it's started big argument over safety on the mountain, and how much

:03:02.:03:04.

Sherpas are paid. Now teams are starting to come down from Base

:03:05.:03:08.

Camp, saying it's not safe to attempt to reach the summit. Having

:03:09.:03:16.

been there and seeing the conditions myself and seeing the repeated

:03:17.:03:21.

avalanches again and again, that is not snow but face, greasy and

:03:22.:03:25.

speaking of her coming down. I know for certain that those conditions

:03:26.:03:29.

are not safe. Club legend Ryan Giggs has given his

:03:30.:03:32.

first press conference as stand-in manager of Manchester United. Giggs

:03:33.:03:36.

is in temporary charge for the rest of the season, after David Moyes was

:03:37.:03:39.

sacked this week. He says taking charge of the club he's supported

:03:40.:03:43.

since he was a boy, was the "proudest moment" of his life.

:03:44.:03:51.

I would like to just say I am very proud to be managing for the

:03:52.:03:56.

remaining four games. The club that I supported all my life. I have been

:03:57.:04:03.

associated with it for 2526 years so it is a proud moment for me. One

:04:04.:04:06.

that I will enjoy. This right here is a praying mantis,

:04:07.:04:09.

with a difference. Because this little guy is wearing the world's

:04:10.:04:12.

smallest 3D glasses! They're the only invertebrates able to see in

:04:13.:04:15.

three dimensions - other insects only see in 2D. So scientists at

:04:16.:04:19.

Newcastle University are studying mantises to find out how other

:04:20.:04:23.

creatures developed 3D vision. They hope it'll help create new robotic

:04:24.:04:26.

technology in future. But just how do you get five millimetre glasses

:04:27.:04:40.

onto an insect? We fix them on to deeply in Mantis

:04:41.:04:46.

using beeswax so we melt the glasses on to the Mantis and after we are

:04:47.:04:49.

finished with the experiment we can melt the wax and remove the glasses.

:04:50.:04:53.

They are detachable. More on that story on the website, make sure you

:04:54.:04:57.

check it out. We are back tomorrow. Goodbye.
