A couple in Australia has been charged with five counts of bestiality after they allegedly engaged in sexual acts with two dogs in Queensland.

The couple, 37-year-old Crystal May Hoare and 28-year-old Jay Wade, was first arrested in July but released on bail after the initial court appearance.

Before further legal proceedings are taken, their case is required to be escalated to a higher court. On Monday (August 14), the charges against them were mentioned at Sarina Magistrates Court for the first time.

<h2>Statement by local officials</h2>

Local media outlets have quoted police officials as saying that the alleged incidents involving bestiality were caught on camera, and occurred between October 2021 and October 2022.

The pair was caught on video in the act with animals on October 18, 2021, as well as March 19, May 17, June 6 and October 25, 2022.

If found guilty, the pair faces a potential jail term of seven years.

In a similar incident reported from the United States, a woman faced legal charges after she allegedly engaged in a disturbing act involving her dog, which was reportedly captured on video by her boyfriend.&nbsp;

According to a report from Fox News, Brittany McClure has been taken into custody on allegations of sodomy and animal abuse concerning their pet dog, Max.

Law enforcement officials have stated that McClure's boyfriend took action by reporting the incident to authorities. He had come across evidence of the act through surveillance cameras installed in their living room.

In January this year, an Australian couple was accused of having engaged in sexual acts with a fish. The incident came to light when a Tasmania woman flagged the incident and posted the video of the act on social media.

Australian couple accused of having sex with dogs charged with five counts of bestiality

In a win-win situation, an Australian couple miraculously won a $1 million lottery twice in one week after scratching the tickets. The couple living in Dapto, Wollongong were overjoyed when they found out that they won the lottery not once but twice in the same week after the husband confirmed purchasing the same entry twice.

However, the lucky man's lottery hour began on an angry note. “It’s actually a funny story as to why we ended up with the same entry twice,” the lotto winner said.

The husband said his wife was angry with him because he had forgotten to submit the ticket numbers chosen by her last week.&nbsp;

To make up for the forgotten ticket numbers last week, the man decided to “put them on twice”. So, the husband bought two lotto tickets from two different news stands in Dapto using the same numbers which are being submitted by his wife for three decades.

The husband's gesture to seek forgiveness soon proved fortuitous after the couple won the lotto not once but twice.

“This morning she kept crossing off number after number on her ticket, and once we realised we’d won $1 million (roughly $668,000) on one ticket, I thought I should probably tell her about the second identical ticket too,” the newly-minted multimillionaire said.

The chances of winning the Australian lotto twice remain unknown, however, experts estimate that the chances of purchasing one winning ticket are one in 1.845 million.

“I can’t believe this has happened to us,” said the husband. Unlike other lotto winners who start splurging the money, the couple plans to use their $2 million to help the family members.

“My mind is racing with all the things I can do for my family. I can buy my daughter a house. I can set up the children and grandchildren for the future,” said the woman.

Angry wife makes Australian couple win $1mn lottery twice in a week

An Australian couple suffering from a deteriorating COVID-19 condition were evacuated from a cruise ship stranded off the coast of Uruguay and taken to hospital, the Uruguayan navy said on Wednesday.

Eight people out of the more than 200 aboard -- 128 of whom have tested positive for the new coronavirus -- have now been transferred to hospitals in Uruguay's capital Montevideo.

Also read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/after-coronavirus-outbreak-chinese-companies-eye-european-businesses-291401" hreflang="en">After coronavirus outbreak, Chinese companies eye European businesses</a>

The navy posted a picture on Twitter of the raft that took the tourists, "aged 59 and 60, both with pneumonia and coronavirus," ashore.

Foreign Minister Ernesto Talvi had said on Tuesday night that two more people aboard the Australian-owned Greg Mortimer would need to be brought ashore.

"Their health is deteriorating and they're going to need to be taken to hospital in Montevideo," Talvi said.

The liner, owned by Aurore Expeditions, has been anchored 20 kilometers (12 miles) off the port of Montevideo in the Rio de la Plata since March 27.

Uruguay, which is assuming that everyone aboard has contracted the virus due to the lack of isolation measures deployed on the liner when the first cases emerged, has said only those whose "life is at risk" will be allowed off the ship.

The six people previously taken off the ship -- three Australians, one Briton and two Filipino crew -- are in a stable condition in hospital, Health Minister Daniel Salinas told AFP on Tuesday.

Uruguay has authorized a humanitarian flight to evacuate Australian and New Zealand passengers to Melbourne via a "reinforced sanitary corridor" following "intense conversations and very close cooperation with the Australian government," Talvi said.

Australian&nbsp;Foreign Minister Marise Payne confirmed on Wednesday that authorities were working together to try to repatriate as many Australians as possible.

"The Greg Mortimer&nbsp;is a very difficult situation," said Payne.

"So we are working very closely to try to finalise this charter flight as soon as possible and to ensure that the maximum number of Australians who are on that vessel are able to fly."

That includes both those to have tested positive and negative. Once arriving in Melbourne they will all be required to stay in isolation for two weeks.

The Airbus A340 plane contracted to fly the Aussies and Kiwis home "is configured with medical facilities aboard... to look after the health and security of everyone," said Aurore.&nbsp;

However, there are no plans yet to repatriate European and American passengers.

They must "wait until they test negative" before organizing their repatriation via Sao Paulo, Brazil, the ship's owner said.

Those to have tested negative could be evacuated in the coming days "subject to a second test and permission from the Uruguayan government," Aurore said.

The cruise ship was originally due to tour Antarctica, South Georgia and Elephant Island but the expedition was called off on March 21 after South American countries and Australia started closing their borders and imposing strict lockdown regulations.

With ports all along the Atlantic coast of South America closed, the Greg Mortimer was forced to sail to Montevideo, more than 2,600 kilometers from South Georgia.&nbsp;
