On the "Today" show in Australia, a fishing expert named Paul Burt was reporting from a salt lake where someone reported a shark sighting.  And as a joke, he picked up a fishing pole, and cast it . . . like he'd somehow catch the shark. He didn't, obviously.  But what he DID catch was a DUCK.  And he started reeling the line in, but then realized what happened, started LAUGHING, and said, quote, "I got a bird!  I got a bird! . . . I'd go to another shot."  They cut back to the studio, and the anchor said, quote, "Well, that didn't end well, did it?"  Then he added, "Peking duck, anyone?" According to the show, the duck was fine and didn't actually get hooked.  It just got snagged in the line.
