Vienna (Austria), Apr 19 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Christian Bruna / Maider Gamero) It has survived revolutions, the fall of European empires and two world wars: the Vienna daily "Wiener Zeitung", founded in 1703, is in danger of disappearing due to the digitization of the Austrian Official Gazette, that the newspaper publishes on paper once a week.This change can be fatal because without the income generated by the newsletter, the newspaper would lose "up to 75% of the 18 million invoice annually", says its director, Walter Hämmerle.FOOTAGE OF THE DAILY'S HEADQUARTERS IN VIENNASOUNDBITES OF WALTER HÄMMERLE, 'WIENER ZEITUNG'S DIRECTOR

Belgrade (Serbia), 25 Sep (EFE/EPA), (Camera: Andrej Cukic).- At 84 years of age, he is thought to be the longest-lived American alligator in captivity and his keepers say his good health could see him carry on for several more years. Life in his small pool, a balanced diet, the care of the staff and attention from visitors seem to have a healthy effect on the reptile, which arrived in Serbia in the mid-1930s. The death of another alligator at Moscow Zoo earlier this year has left Muja without his main rival for longevity of an American alligator in captivity.FOOTAGE OF MUJA, THE AMERICAN ALLIGATOR AND SOUNDBITES BY BELGIAN ZOO VETERINARIAN JOZEF EZVEDJ.TRANSLATION:"Muja came to the zoo in 1936, when the zoo was founded, but he was not a baby, he was like a child"."He is fed every two weeks.
