overtake the north-east club. Don't forget to watch this week's

:00:00.:00:00.

Kickabout for we spoke to Conor McNamara.

:00:00.:00:00.

Good morning this Bank Holiday Monday,

:00:07.:00:08.

Here's just two of today's top stories coming up:

:00:09.:00:12.

What world record have these rockers broken?

:00:13.:00:15.

Why the country of Kenya is going to extreme lengths to stop poaching.

:00:16.:00:32.

But first, Leicester City's hopes of celebrating their first ever

:00:33.:00:34.

English Premier League title have been put on hold this weekend,

:00:35.:00:37.

thanks to a one-all draw with Manchester United

:00:38.:00:39.

But Leicester could win the trophy if title rivals Tottenham lose

:00:40.:00:45.

or draw against Chelsea tonight at Stamford Bridge.

:00:46.:00:49.

Martin went to that Man United-Leicester match on Sunday

:00:50.:00:52.

This was a massive weekend for Leicester City fans.

:00:53.:00:59.

They were coming here to play Manchester United at Old Trafford,

:01:00.:01:02.

and a win would have seen the club win its first

:01:03.:01:04.

It ended in a 1-1 draw, so let's find out what the fans

:01:05.:01:11.

When Manchester United scored, I was like, "we are all done for."

:01:12.:01:15.

And then a couple of minutes later, Leicester City scored.

:01:16.:01:20.

I kind of did a couple of fist bumps.

:01:21.:01:22.

When Leicester scored it was very loud.

:01:23.:01:26.

At the start of the second half, it was great, because Leicester

:01:27.:01:31.

opened up and they did lots and lots of shots,

:01:32.:01:33.

and that was way more better than the first half.

:01:34.:01:36.

I feel good about the draw because it is Man Utd

:01:37.:01:38.

It is a good result cos we still have two matches to go to get it.

:01:39.:01:45.

I think Leicester is definitely going to win the league.

:01:46.:01:47.

We're definitely going to win the trophy.

:01:48.:01:50.

And in cycling, France's Thomas Voeckler claimed victory in the Tour

:01:51.:01:55.

de Yorkshire after winning the third and final stage at Scarborough.

:01:56.:01:58.

Around 2 million people are thought to have come out to support the race

:01:59.:02:02.

These striking pictures show more than 100 tonnes of elephant tusks

:02:03.:02:05.

that have been set on fire in the east African

:02:06.:02:08.

A big meeting's been taking place there to talk about

:02:09.:02:16.

are illegally hunted for their ivory every year.

:02:17.:02:22.

Kenya wants to show it's doing something about it,

:02:23.:02:24.

although some people think it could make the problem worse.

:02:25.:02:27.

The BBC's Anne Soy sent this report for Newsround.

:02:28.:02:29.

The big fire behind me is ivory burning.

:02:30.:02:31.

Every elephant has two tusks, but there are people

:02:32.:02:37.

who like to kill them just so that they can get these tusks

:02:38.:02:40.

and transport them all the way to Asia where they are very valuable

:02:41.:02:43.

because they are used to make statues and jewellery.

:02:44.:02:45.

But then, Kenya are trying to tell the world that it is not

:02:46.:02:48.

It is more important to keep them alive because then people can come

:02:49.:02:53.

into the country and go to the parks and see them.

:02:54.:02:57.

So they have come to burn this ivory so that they can tell the poachers

:02:58.:03:00.

that we are very serious, we are coming after you and we will

:03:01.:03:06.

arrest you if you continue killing the elephants.

:03:07.:03:10.

They think that if nothing is done to stop the poachers,

:03:11.:03:15.

in about ten years there will not be any elephants left in Africa,

:03:16.:03:21.

and so it is very important for them to stop the poachers.

:03:22.:03:29.

Well, it's not only elephants that are hunted by poachers.

:03:30.:03:32.

Rhino are being pushed to the brink of extinction too.

:03:33.:03:35.

We've made a special film about the situation in South Africa.

:03:36.:03:37.

Here's your first look at Defending the Rhino.

:03:38.:03:41.

South Africa - one of the most spectacular places on the planet.

:03:42.:03:44.

I'm travelling hundreds of miles across the country which is home

:03:45.:03:55.

to some of the world's most magnificent creatures.

:03:56.:03:57.

But these animals are facing a fight, and at the moment,

:03:58.:04:04.

I'll meet the people putting their lives in danger

:04:05.:04:10.

to protect Africa's wildlife, before it's too late.

:04:11.:04:13.

And try and track down two rhino that are lucky to be alive.

:04:14.:04:26.

F1 was the sport of choice for many people over the weekend

:04:27.:04:30.

but for some it's lawnmowers - yep the British lawnmower

:04:31.:04:32.

racing season kicked off with some intense racing.

:04:33.:04:35.

For safety all the blades are removed from the mowers

:04:36.:04:37.

The season runs from May to October and races continue today.

:04:38.:04:48.

"Hey Joe", a song by legendary guitarist

:04:49.:04:52.

and singer Jimi Hendrix, was played by 7,356 of them

:04:53.:04:54.

at the same time in Wroclaw Square in the south of the country.

:04:55.:04:57.

That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.
