Working USB stick found in leopard seal's year-old frozen faeces

New Zealand puts out call to find owner of memory stick spotted in frozen poo sample

A functioning USB stick has been found in the scat of a rare Antarctic leopard seal, prompting New Zealand's national science body to launch a hunt for the owner.

Volunteers at the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (Niwa) recovered the device while examining the animal's frozen faeces - which had been sitting in a freezer for over a year.
