announcement yesterday afternoon. He was calling time on his

international career. England manager Gareth Southgate had

recalled the striker for next month's World Cup qualifiers,

but Rooney said he believes now is the time to bow out,

making what he calls He has been somebody who has

served England brilliantly I know this was a difficult

decision for him. It is important to remember

for the vast majority of his career, he has only been the one

England world-class player. Rooney has been an England

player for 14 years. Longer than some of

you have been alive. He first played in 2003,

when he was a teenager At the time he was the youngest

player ever to play for England. He was made captain

in 2014 by the manager And he led the team

where you can take a look at the highs and lows

of Rooney's England career. Owls are becoming very popular

as pets in Indonesia because of the massive success

of Harry Potter. We all know Harry has

an owl called Hedwig. But some people are worried

because birds are being taken from the wild to sell

in markets there. Since the massive success

of the Harry Potter series, some Indonesians have started

keeping owls as pets. Conservationists are worried

about the impact I saw Hedwig the snowy owl so I got

the closest owl I could find here. Now in Indonesia quite a lot of owls

are being sold In Indonesian, the word

owl means ghost bird, so before the Harry Potter films,

owls were not very popular in the country,

but now that is changing. More and more owls are being taken

from the wild and sold in huge bird markets across the country,

where they are now very popular. But some people are not

happy about it. This has a huge impact

on the wild population of owls. Owls have an important

role to protect and keep By removing so many owls

from the wild to be sold in People like Femke hope getting

extra protection for owls in Indonesia will help lift

the Harry Potter curse. So for all you cake fans out
