What do you picture when you think of an emotional support animal? A dog, a cat, perhaps a duck. How about an alligator?

U.S. Philadelphia’s Love Park has an unusual visitor, WallyGator, a 7-year-old emotional support animal alligator, which has been astonishing visitors.

Wally’s owner, Joie Henney, is undergoing radiation for prostate cancer, and he said the gator is “a big supporter of people needing smiles”.

“He works with a lot of special needs adults and children. He puts thousands of smiles on people’s faces almost every day. He comforts people when they’re sad.”

“He sleeps with me, steals my pillows, and steals my blankets. He’s just awesome,” Mr Henney said.

Wally walked on a leash, greeting visitors and wandering by the fountain.

Henney doesn’t know why but the gator has never shown anger or aggression towards anything.

“Wally has been quite different than any alligator I’ve ever dealt with in the past 30 years.”

He further added, “most people are really excited and happy to see him.”

Wally has become a TikTok star with over 72,000 followers, and is in the running to be “America’s Favorite Pet”.

Airbus faces manufacturing issues with A320 fuselage panels, impacting shares but confirming safety for in-service aircraft.

Airbus is confronting a fresh manufacturing issue after discovering a quality defect in several dozen fuselage panels used on A320-family jets. The revelation sparked investor concern, with shares falling by up to 10% as the news broke.

While the newly identified flaw has caused some delivery delays, Airbus confirms that aircraft already in service are safe and unaffected. The defect is limited to a specific batch of panels, and all new production now meets required standards.

The company has apologised for the disruption and says it is working closely with suppliers to prevent a repeat of the issue.
