Keep watching for the strangest news stories of the week. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
This is Newsround. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:27 | |
First, one of the biggest, most colourful carnivals | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
in the world has started in Rio, in Brazil. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
More than a million people are expected in the city, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
to take part in the celebrations. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
People wear amazing costumes, and dance through the streets. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
The BBC's Julia Caniero is there. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
It's the first day in Rio and this is one of the many street parades | 0:00:47 | 0:00:54 | |
or blocos that are happening across the city. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
is very traditional. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
They are playing the old carnival songs that people here grew up | 0:01:00 | 0:01:09 | |
so there are many families here and this is a good example | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
of how people in Brazil learn to enjoy carnival | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
from a very young age. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:19 | |
Well, the Rio Carnival is still going ahead, | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
despite worries about a virus called Zika, which is spreading in Brazil, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
and other parts of South America. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
Doctors around the world are looking for ways to help the people | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
there affected by it. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
Martin has been looking into what Zika is | 0:01:32 | 0:01:33 | |
and how to fight it. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
Zika is a disease carried by mosquitoes. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
When a mosquito bites people, it can it spread the disease | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
from person to person. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
The type of mosquitoes that carry the disease live in tropical | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
countries, so it's not likely to affect the UK. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
When people do catch the virus, usually it's very mild, | 0:01:50 | 0:01:54 | |
so mild that they don't know they were infected afterwards. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
You feel a bit unwell, like you've got a cold, | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
but it's more serious if a woman is having a baby. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
Scientists say they think it may affect how a baby grows | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
before it's born. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:07 | |
Doctors around the world are now coming up with ways | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
to try to deal with Zika. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:11 | |
While scientists are making new medicines and vaccines to stop | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
Zika virus, everyone is going to be working to make sure people don't | 0:02:14 | 0:02:19 | |
get bitten by mosquitoes. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:20 | |
They're going to be trying to get rid of the mosquitoes and that | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
will actually stop a lot of different diseases. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
Let's get some sport now. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
You've been telling us who you think will win the Six Nations | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
and it's turning into a battle! | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
Menna thinks... | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
But John thinks... | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
But John thinks... | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Menna and John will be glued to their screens later, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
when Ireland and Wales meet for their match in about an hour. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
Ireland will be trying to make it three Six Nations | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
title wins in a row. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
Wales came third last year. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:52 | |
Owan is also a Wales fan. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
Owan is also a Wales fan. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:54 | |
He says... | 0:02:54 | 0:03:00 | |
And we've heard from Scotland and England fans, too. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
Robbie says... | 0:03:02 | 0:03:08 | |
And Kieran says... | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
And Kieran says... | 0:03:10 | 0:03:10 | |
Thanks for all your comments. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
On to football now. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
Manchester United are away at Chelsea in today's 4 o'clock game | 0:03:13 | 0:03:18 | |
in the Premier League. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
United are currently 13 points behind the leaders, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Leicester, but a win against Chelsea later | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
will keep them in the race for the top four. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Next, sport doesn't come much bigger than the Superbowl. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
More than 100 million people, all round the world, | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
will be watching the biggest American Football game of the year | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
later, as the Denver Broncos take on the Carolina Panthers. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
And even though it's in America, there is a little bit of Britain | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
in there, too. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Panthers star, Graham Gano, was actually born in Arbroath, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
in Scotland, and although he grew up in the US, he hasn't | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
forgotten his roots. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
My dream growing up was always to play for the Scottish national | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
team and never to play football, so it's changed a little bit, | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
but I'm really excited to have the jerseys now. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:05 | |
And, finally, I'm going to put it out there - | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
this could be the cutest thing you see this year. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
Meet Nora, the polar bear cub. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
At Columbus Zoo, in the US, they've been filming the first | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
83 days of her life. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
From having a feed, and taking a nap, to playing with her toys, | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
Nora has been having an awesome time. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
The full time-lapse is on our website. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
I know I'll be watching it, on repeat, all afternoon. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
Next up, something strange. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:26 | |
Very strange. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:27 | |
Here's our round up of the week's weirdest news stories. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
Enjoy. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:38 | |
What do you do if a zebra escapes from your zoo? | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
Staff at Japan's Ueno Zoo have a pretty good plan. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
They practised by getting one of their staff to dress up | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
as a zebra and try to escape capture. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
They managed to trap the...ahem... | 0:04:47 | 0:04:48 | |
animal with a net, ready to take it back to its enclosure. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:54 | |
Are you a cat or a dog person? | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
That's the question we asked all week, after the release | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
of a new BBC Two documentary | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
called Cats v Dogs, Which Is Best? | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
Martin and I even did our own little survey at a school. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |

of rhubarb growing is? | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
I know I have. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
SNAPPING | 0:05:24 | 0:05:25 | |
Catch that? | 0:05:25 | 0:05:26 | |
This is what's known as Rhubarb Triangle | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
in West Yorkshire, where they've been celebrating the arrival | 0:05:28 | 0:05:33 | |
of the first rhubarb crop of the season with | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
a special exhibition. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:36 | |
Let's hear that one more time... | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
SNAPPING | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
Something else very strange for you online - | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
dogs in fancy dress! | 0:05:44 | 0:05:45 | |
You do not want to miss it, especially the one dressed | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
as a hot dog. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:49 | |
4 o'clock Club is up next on CBBC. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
