Odd paper
I found this funny article about an Australian paper company that has started making paper out of... kangaroo poo!! Apparently the owner of the company got the idea from African paper manufacturers who have been making paper out of elephant poo. Allegedly, in Scandinavia recycled paper is mixed with elk poo to produce new normal office paper.
I am sure you are all wondering why anyone would use paper made with poo. Well, apparently it does not smell and due to the organic processes in the stomach of the animal, the cellulose fibres are well suited for paper production.
PS: We have no elks in Denmark, so I guess the elk poo production must be in Sweden or Norway... :-)
