This Stray Dog In Turkey Takes Public Transport By Himself Every Day And Now He’s A Celebrity
Boji, a stray dog in Istanbul, Turkey, has gone viral for taking public transportation on his own every day and traveling around the city, where he is now a celebrity among commuters.
Boji can travel at least 30 kilometers, stopping at up to 29 metro stops, every day, according to the Turkish news agency Hürriyet Daily News.
Besides the subway, Boji also takes trams and ferries to travel around Istanbul, and even from Europe to Asia.
Not only is Boji well-traveled, he is also regarded as a polite passenger since he always waits until people have alighted the train before walking in himself.
As more and more people paid attention to Boji, local animal protection agencies also became concerned about his safety.
Therefore, at the end of August, he was brought back for inspection and had chips and a tracking device implanted to learn his whereabouts in real time.
Based on the data provided by the tracking equipment, Boji most frequently takes the tram T1 line and the subway T4 line.
Boji now has his own Twitter account, which records many of his journeys, and many passengers enjoy meeting him on their daily commute.
He has undoubtedly become a local - and now global - superstar welcome and loved by many.

Nobody knows why he is traveling around. I hope he is not searching for his owner, that would break my heart !

ignoring the fact that RF (probably) doesnt cause cancer, its not an rf transmitter. its not even an electrical device. its just a plastic tag with numbers written on it
