Sophie Tucker, seen here, fell overboard off the northeast Queensland cost of Australia. Last week, she was reunited with her human family. Apparently, Sophie had been living on an island for four months. From AFP:

She was returned to her family last week when (Jan) Griffith contacted rangers who had captured a dog that had been living off feral goats on the largely uninhabited island, in the faint hope it might be their long-lost pet…

Griffith said that when the dog was first spotted on the island she had been in poor condition.

"And then all of a sudden she started to look good and it was when the rangers had found baby goat carcasses so she'd started eating baby goats," she said.
