Irish internet bookie Paddy Power has jumped on the news of the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and has decided to offer its members odds on animal extinctions caused by the greasy mess. Kemp’s Ridley Turtle, an endangered species that migrates to the Gulf this time of year, is the favorite for the first to go, paying at 4 to 5. On the other hand, the gulf sturgeon, smalltooth sawfish and elkhorn coral all long shots with payout rates of 20 to 1.

These extinction odds are listed in the Current Affairs section under “BP Specials”, and are offered alongside odds on who will be the company’s next CEO.

Ok, so it’s not literally volcano insurance, but it might as well be. The eruption of Iceland’s Eyjafjoell volcano last month filled Europe’s skys with clouds of ash. This ash disrupted airline travel, and lead to the closure of some of the biggest airports in the world.

Scientists reported today that a second Icelandic volcano may erupt soon. Fortunately, bettors can cash in if they get their timing right! Over at Paddy Power Sportsbook, they are offering odds on what dates London’s Heathrow airport will be shut down due to ash clouds. Since experts are saying that another eruption could cause more closures, punters would do well to put some money down.
