Montevideo, Mar 4 (EFE), (Camera: EFE).- The dream of professionalism for women's basketball in Uruguay seems far away since they have to fight against inequality in a broad sense. Today the pandemic has become the perfect excuse to make them play in almost humiliating conditions.FOOTAGE OF A GAME IN MONTEVIDEO. SOUNDBITES OF ALVÍN FLORENCIA SOMMA, MALVíN PLAYER:"It is a fight we have to continue to seek equality in sport. Some things have been happening that are a result of too many things. But we also think the way we have to keep pushing and continue growing is being here, participating and it is from inside. We need all parts related to women's basketball to push forward and mainly (we need them) to be convinced that we all want women's basketball to grow or reaches a professional status."

Three elephants named Mara, Kuki and Pupi have officially filed a lawsuit against the the Buenos Aires Zoo, where they currently reside, claiming that their quality of life there amounts to animal cruelty. Well, to put it more accurately, their lawyer, Andres Gil Rodriguez, has been allowed to state these claims on behalf of his pachyderm clients by the court, but the elephants really are suing the zoo for animal cruelty. No, really. The argument is that the elephants could have a much better life at an elephant sanctuary had they not been held captive by the zoo for profit. And ever since a 2014 ruling which declared that an orangutan has the same rights as humans, they actually might win.
