The debris-chucking octopuses were caught on camera for the first time in Australia. Having eight arms can make for some interesting sporting events (just check out the weird history of octopus wresting).

The Elf Owl looks like an elf, but it’s no bigger than a sparrow. The Elf Owl is the world’s smallest raptor. It lives in dry thorn forests, deserts, pine-oak forests, and riparian woodlands at the southern border of the U.S. and Mexico. A
The incredible find was about three or four years old when it died at least 20,000 years ago. An absolute unit of a woolly rhino on display at the Weston Park Museum, Sheffield, UK.
