Taiwan dog poo lottery proves a 'big success'
A Taiwanese city is keeping dog mess off its streets by offering prizes to owners who clear up after their pets.
Officials in New Taipei City say that more than 4,000 people have collected 14,500 bags of excrement. For each bag they turned in, they were given a lottery ticket.
A woman in her 50s won the top prize - a gold ingot worth $2,200 (£1,400).
