I lived in British Guiana (now Guyana) as a child, and I remember watching BBC News in 1966 (we were back home by then), reporting how “the islanders” celebrated the arrival of independence.

Mind you, the ‘Telegraph’ has a video showing a ‘deer’ that they claim is ‘feigning death’ to escape a cheetah and a hyaena.
