Football Playing Dinosaur!

Published: 28th Aug 2015

Aresnal's Theo Walcott and Mikel Arteta are the latest soccer stars to take on the Dizzy Challenge, which is the latest publicity campaign bythe United Nations to make people aware of its Global Goals campaign. Arsenal's very own dinosaur mascot - Gunnersaurus - wanted to join in the fun. Despite the coaching of Arsene Wenger things went very wrong. Dinosaurs are not built to play football, Gunnersaurus tried his utmost, but fell and could not get up again. The same fate befell the Dinosaur Museum's own mascot Dina who whilst walking along a Dorset beach for a TV documentary some years ago fell and was unable to get up. Could this be the real reason that dinosaurs became extinct!

On September 25th 2015, 193 world leaders will commit to 17 Global Goals to achieve 3 extraordinary things in the next 15 years. End extreme poverty. Fight inequality & injustice. Fix climate change.
