News: Hong Kong's newly built Disneyland theme park has some less than cuddly animal characters to contend with.

Hundreds of stray dogs are reportedly plaguing the Magic Kingdom, attracted by food discarded by staff and construction workers around the site.

But the hounds bit off more than they could chew when they chased the park's boss as he drove in to work.

Now at least 40 of the animals have "gone to live on a farm" as my granny used to say when family pets suddenly disappeared.

The feral packs are thought to have lived in caves in the Penny's Bay area of Lantau Island for many years, but only became a problem when developers moved in last year.

Micky Mao and his friends Donald "Crispy Fried" Duck and Goo-Fei are due to open the park to the public in September.
