Bunbury's ‘dingo at the harbour' Marley has died
After touching many hearts, Bunbury's 'dingo at the harbour' Marley died at the weekend, aged 15. Born sometime in 2010 on a mine-site in the Pilbara, Marley was found as an orphan with two other pups — their mother dead after being hit by a vehicle. Marley was the only of the three to survive, taken in by a worker who had the pup join him on site as he grew. The worker took Marley home to his farm in Harvey, where his mischievous and playful nature with the golden Labrador in the movie Marley and Me his namesake. He spent the next three years on the farm, stealing shoes, chewing on all the wrong things and doing what mischievous dogs do. In 2013, Marley and his rescuer moved Casurina Boat Harbour, living onboard an old navy vessel from World War II. Tributes flow for Marley, Bunbury's 'dingo at the harbour'.

However in 2022, Marley and his rescuer moved to a yard in the Australind industrial area — a change Marley was not happy with. Spending his days pacing, howling and whining about being away from his territory, the man who rescued Marley from the Pilbara more than a decade prior, made the decision to return Marley to his home at the Bunbury Outer Harbour. Over the next few years, people's love for Marley grew, setting up a feeding station for the pooch, giving him fresh water daily and giving him 'dens' across the harbour for when the weather turned. In a post shared to Facebook on Tuesday night, Marine Rescue Bunbury shared the news Marley died on June 8, 2025. The crew said the pup was 'truly loved'. 'He was a regular at Marine Rescue Bunbury where we looked out for him,' the post said. 'We even named our latest rescue vessel after him — Dingo Marley. 'If anyone was concerned for Marley's welfare, we were often the first point of contact and would ensure necessary action was taken.' The post said Marley's remains would be cremated, with thousands passing on their sympathy for the community's immense loss — and calling for a statue in his honour. 'To all that loved him, he was our Red Dog', community members said while sharing the way Marley brought them joy amid rough seas.

Man accused of 'stalking' Jennifer Aniston for two years before crashing into gate at her home
A man who allegedly crashed his car through the gate of Jennifer Aniston's home has been accused of harassment. On Monday (05.05.25), Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, 48, is said to have driven his Chrysler PT Cruiser into the front gate of the 'Friends' star's Bel Air property. He has been accused of repeatedly sending Jennifer, 56, unwanted email, social media messages and voicemail since 2023. Prosecutors said he has now been charged with felony stalking and vandalism, while Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said Carwyle also faces an aggravating circumstance of threat of great bodily harm. Hochman said in a statement: "My office is committed to aggressively prosecuting those who stalk and terrorise others, ensuring they are held accountable." Carwyle has been held in jail since his arrest earlier this week with bail set at $150,000 (£112,742). He will appear in court on Thursday (08.05.25), and could face up to three years in prison if he is convicted. Jennifer was at home when Carwyle allegedly crashed into the gate. A public information officer from the Los Angeles Police Department told PEOPLE: "There was a security guard on premises who was able to detain that suspect until officers arrived, at which time they took him into custody without incident. "The resident was home at the time." The authorities noted that while the suspect has sustained minor injuries, no one else was hurt in the incident. Jennifer rose to fame on 'Friends' alongside Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and the late Matthew Perry. The six stars appeared on the iconic sitcom from 1994 to 2004, and since then she has enjoyed roles in the likes of 'Marley and Me', 'Horrible Bosses', 'Murder Mystery' and Apple TV+ series 'The Morning Show'. Jennifer recently revealed the most "surprising" place she had been recognised as her alter ego Rachel Green, and admitted it was when she was in quite a "vulnerable" state. She told Travel+Leisure magazine: "Not surprising, but I've been in vulnerable places, like undressed in a steam room, or in a sauna or some sort of a spa either half-covered or completely naked."

Owner Shows Dog 'The Lion King', Her Reaction to Tragic Scene Breaks Hearts
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog who couldn't take her eyes off a devastating movie scene in a Disney classic has broken her owner's heart, and gained a large viewership on social media at the same time. Aisha, 32 and from the United Kingdom, is the proud owner of long-haired Rottweiler Roxy, who has become somewhat of a social media star in recent days owing to her reaction to The Lion King. "She's always shown curiosity to the [television], when there are bright colours and quick movements, and listens for sounds," Aisha, who only shared her first name, told Newsweek. "Cartoons like The Lion King have a lot of colours which she picked up straight away, and the movement and the music just all got her attention," she added. Aishah recorded her dog, Roxy, being glued to a sad scene in The Lion King. Aishah recorded her dog, Roxy, being glued to a sad scene in The Lion King. TikTok @Aiishahn But while the 1994 Disney movie quickly got Roxy's attention, it was how she responded to the famously devastating scene with Mufasa's death that led her to go viral. In a video posted to Aishah's TikTok account @aiishahn on April 24, with over 550,000 views, Roxy lies on the couch with her eyes glued to the TV, as Simba the lion cub can be heard telling his father to wake up. Roxy doesn't take her eyes from the screen, and when Aishah turns the camera to show what's happening in the movie, Roxy can be heard making a noise somewhere between a growl and a whine. She then goes back to staring silently at the screen, only taking her eyes off it when she lays her head on her paws as though sad, as Aishah assures her: "It's okay." Aishah wrote on the video: "That one and only time I let my dog watch The Lion King. Now tell me animals don't understand or have feelings," and she added in the caption: "Never letting my dog watch The Lion King again." Roxy's reaction melted heats on TikTok, with one person writing: "This movie is every species' first heartbreak," and another advising: "Don't let him watch Marley and Me. I never recovered from that." The Rottweiler growled and laid her head on her paws as the devastating scene played out.

TikTok @Aiishahn "The bigger dogs are the biggest babies ever," another said, while another insisted dogs "have and understand emotions even from a young age." Shedding light on canines' TV habits, website PetMD said: "It is hard to know what dogs are "thinking" when they watch TV, and some seem to take it much more seriously than others. That being said, it does appear that dogs recognize other animals on TV, will respond to the barking of dogs, and readily distinguish photos of dogs from cartoon dogs." And while dogs don't comprehend TV the same way as humans, they can see the images, and their different color perception means shows with blues, greens and yellows will be particularly interesting to them, according to PetMD. Aishah told Newsweek Roxy also loves watching kids' cartoon Bluey, which has many of these colors. Dogs do appear to recognize other animals on TV—and in Roxy's case, watching TV squirrels is one of her favorite pastimes. Aishah told Newsweek her dog "loves watching long clips of actual squirrels on YouTube when put on the TV." She "won't take her eyes off it, she likes to chase them—but obviously never gets to them quick enough." Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?
