The Golden Dolphin.




This story is so fascinating. At Nagoya Castle were two golden dolphins, one male, and one female. During World War II, the castle was bombed and burned down. The dolphins were badly damaged. When the castle was restored, new dolphins were placed on the roof of the castle. A worker on this project stole some of the golden scales from the original sculpture. They were eventually found and returned, and the guy was caught for his crime.

Isn't that great, though? I want to write a story about an albino alligator sculpture, and how someone steals the scales of white gold from it.
