Apparently, a mouse had taken up residency in his barrack. He finally trapped the little guy he called Whiskers and transported him via trash can <span class="GRcorrect" grcontextid="to:0" grmarkguid="bf89c6c3-0a81-4a77-aa9e-23a248c69584" gruiphraseguid="00082972-8e86-40b8-83ba-7f3644be815c">to</span> an open field. He then released the critter, telling it "good luck." Unfortunately for the mouse, this happened:<br />

<br />
One <span class="GRcorrect" grcontextid="commenter:0" grmarkguid="6cca080b-0fb1-44b8-9291-e0d367d333b2" gruiphraseguid="eaedb836-8257-4140-8439-4e71a112c0ef">commenter</span> said, "This is definitely real. I personally know the guy and saw his Facebook comments about a mouse in his barracks room for the past couple of days, concluding with a final status update about a hawk swooping in to snatch the mouse just moments after he had released it. Amazingly, they caught it on video. This was filmed at the U.S. <a class="bbnotgood" href="http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/blog/50700/mouse+released+into+wild+snatched+by+hawk+ruins+good+deed+video/#" id="_GPLITA_0" in_rurl="http://i.trkjmp.com/click?v=VVM6MjcxMzM6MTg6bWlsaXRhcnkgYWNhZGVteTozYTRmNTQzNjNjNWM1OWIyMjFjZTI4Y2FiYmZjYzU4MDp6LTEzMjItMTMwNDE5Ond3dy5ncmluZHR2LmNvbToxODcwNTo4ZDVhNzU4N2ZjNTdiNjYxYzAxMDNhOTk4MzZmOTk1ZQ" style="color: #2578c7;" title="Click to Continue > by Coupon Companion Plugin">Military Academy</a> at West Point, N.Y."<br />
<br />
"I feel relieved that he's not going to wake me up in my bed and crawl on my leg," the Good Samaritan says on the video. "It's kinda sad, it's got to know me..."<br />
<br />
At that moment, the cadet turns around and watches in dismay as the hawk snatches the mouse and flies away.<br />
<br />
"Oh no. Oh no. <span class="GRcorrect" grcontextid="Nooooo:0" grmarkguid="ce597178-3847-4484-bbd1-35ec71c5c753" gruiphraseguid="8450ef9c-fe95-4eef-9f0f-6075cf1d2e9a">Nooooo</span>. Are you kidding me? He didn't last five minutes. I'm a terrible person."<br />
<br />
As they say, no good deed goes unpunished. But wait, there's another way to look at this: One might say he was a Good Samaritan for feeding the hawk.<br />

The newly mapped ocean floor lies within the <a href="http://www.ouramazingplanet.com/1207-sharks-great-white-sharks-tagging.html">Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary,</a> a protected area that spans 1,279 square miles (3,312 square kilometers) of the Pacific Ocean just northwest of San Francisco.
Thanks to <a href="http://www.ouramazingplanet.com/2906-hydrothermal-vents-discovered.html">a sonar mapping tool,</a> scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently got a look at some unexplored areas of the sanctuary.

A video using data gleaned from sonar reveals dramatic ravines and canyons that plunge 4,000 feet (1,219 meters) into the deep ocean.
These dramatic cliffs and two other areas are garnering some of the most attention from scientists. These seafloor regions have been well mapped for the first time, and may prove to be home to a host of valuable ocean species.
"These are the first highly detailed images of these areas in our sanctuary," Jan Roletto, sanctuary research coordinator, said in a statement. "This area has promising potential as habitat for deep-sea corals and sponges."
Scientists are planning to revisit these areas in October 2012 to take even better measurements and better understand what creatures live there. They plan to use a deep-diving robot to explore the depths.
Some of the sanctuary's most famous residents don't require deep-diving robots to get a good look. Great white sharks crowd the waters around the Farallon Islands, a smattering of tiny, steep mountains that rise from the sea about 25 miles (40 km) west of San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge.
