A cow that fell from the sky in Japan
In 1997 a Japanese fishing trawler was rescued in
the Sea of Japan. They claimed that a cow fell out of the sky, struck the boat, causing it to sink. The crew members were immediately put in jail. About 2 weeks later the Russian Air Force informed the Japanese authorities that the crew of one of its cargo planes had stolen a cow thinking they would have beef for some time. Of course the cow was not fond of its close surroundings and began to thrash about. To save the aircraft and themselves, at about 30,000 feet, the crew shoved
the animal out of the cargo hold as they were flying over the sea of Japan.

A star jelly rain in Scotland
In 2009, a jelly rain fell in Scotland. Scientists
commissioned by National Geographic carried out tests on, but they have so far failed to find any DNA in it. Theories for the origins of “star jelly” abound, one of the most plausible theories is that star jelly is regurgitated frog or
toad ovaries, vomited by buzzards or herons as it is indigestible, others refer to the remnants of a meteor
shower or even a fungus.
