Hi, I'm Ayshah, and this is your Saturday lunchtime Newsround update. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Mo Farah triumphs at the World Championships in London. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Why this wild cat could make a comeback. | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
First up, athletics, and it was another golden moment | :00:13. | :00:27. | |
He won the 10,000 metres world title at the World Championships in London | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
five years on from his double Olympic triumph. | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
He said it was one of the toughest races of his life, and he even | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
stumbled part way round, but pulled it back for a blistering | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
final lap before winning it with his trademark sprint | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
And the world's fastest man, Usain Bolt, took to the track too | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
He had an awful start, but recovered to win, | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
But he was not happy with the way he ran, | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
I think these are the worst blocks I've ever experienced, and... | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
I have to get the start together, I can't keep doing this. | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
What is it about the blocks in particular, can you explain? | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
It's shaky, because when I did my warm up and I pushed back | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
It's just not what I'm used to, you know what I mean? | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
It's not as sturdy, it's not as firm as I'm used to. | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
It's more than 1,000 years since this type of wild cat, | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
Now there's a new plan to re-introduce them | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
into the English countryside, but not everyone's happy about it. | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
A bit like a leopard crossed with a pet cat, | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
but there's no way you've seen a lynx wild in the UK. | :01:48. | :01:54. | |
That's because they used to be hunted for their beautiful fur, | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
and became extinct in the UK about 1,300 years ago. | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
A group called Lynx UK Trust wants to bring them back. | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
They'd like to release six lynx to Kielder Forest in Northumberland | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
for a five-year trial, and they've been talking | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
This is a life-size cutout of a lynx - that is actually how big | :02:10. | :02:21. | |
So, lynx live all over the world, and in human history, | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
a healthy wild lynx has never, ever, ever attacked a human | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
The Lynx Trust say the cats will help keep the deer population | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
down as well as encouraging more tourists to visit the area. | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
They are worried the lynx could be a threat to their sheep. | :02:39. | :02:47. | |
I think it's an absolutely stupid idea for a predator that's not been | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
in this country for a thousand years to be released. | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
As far as I'm concerned, the lynx will go for the easy target, | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
which is going to be sheep and lambs. | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
The decision is now in the hands of a group called Natural England, | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
and if they say yes, it's thought there could eventually | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
be as many as 400 lynx living in forests across the UK. | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
Now to a very special feline friend who's been getting a lot | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
That was until her 12-year-old owner Evie got sick. | :03:16. | :03:27. | |
She has bone cancer, and Genie has been helping to look after her. | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
When I was diagnosed, she'd crawl round my legs, | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
she'd sit at my feet, she'd do pitter-patter, | :03:34. | :03:35. | |
like when she claws, very gently, like this, | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
She was coming round this leg in particular, which is the one | :03:39. | :03:54. | |
You know something is wrong with that leg, don't you? | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
Genie's story has won her two very special awards, Cat of the Year, | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
It was really good, we had photos taken, it was ace. | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
I guess the judges saw what I see in Genie, an amazing cat. | :04:11. | :04:19. | |
I think she's made a massive difference. | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
I know without her I'd have a lot more darker days, | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
because she just gave me that glimpse of hope that I needed | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
Evie is feeling much better now and has finished her treatment. | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
She still has checkups at the hospital, and Genie | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Now, are you looking forward to the return of sequins, | :04:35. | :04:51. | |
The first set of Strictly stars for this year series will be | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
We've been asking you who you'd like to see in this | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
Thanks for those, guys, and if you want to have your say, | :05:00. | :05:22. | |
People were driving along in the Indian state of Assam when it | :05:23. | :05:43. | |
The rhino and the people in the car were ok after the rhino went | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
The rhino and the people in the car were OK after the rhino went | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
Newsround's back just after 2:00 - see you then. | :05:53. | :05:58. |
