And from the same article - made me laugh -
Earlier this year Google denied reports that one of its Street View cars had run over a donkey in Botswana.
Street View photos appeared to show the animal walking by the roadside in one shot and then lying on its side behind the car in another.
"Because of the way our 360-degree imagery is put together, it looked to some that our car had been involved in an unseemly hit-and-run, leaving the humble beast stranded in the road," wrote Kei Kawai, Group Product Manager, Google Maps in a blog post at the time.
"The donkey was lying in the path - perhaps enjoying a dust bath - before moving safely aside as our car drove past.
"I'm pleased to confirm the donkey is alive and well," he added.
