This story, from 2016, is just too adorable not to share. A teeny tiny baby kitten was spotted roaming the streets on its own in Thailand. A family living in the neighborhood was enjoying their evening when they noticed the little guy on the street. Upon closer inspection, they realized this was no ordinary cat — it didn’t look like any of the other kittens they had seen. The family decide

Pelicans just don’t care. They will try to eat anything they can fit in their pouch. Once they figure out something is food, it’s fair game. You have been warned. Scroll down to the last photo to see the consequences of such criminal behavior!   131

Seeing a mother separated from her child is always heartbreaking to watch. Regardless of whether the mother is human or in this case, from the animal kingdom, the breakup is equally painful. This cow mourned her calf so much, she couldn’t stop crying. Hearing her cries hit me straight in the heart.

It’s a sad fact that some people can be wary of animals that don’t look how they expect them to. Ace the cat had a tough start in life; as a kitten he found himself homeless and having to fend for himself on the street. Thankfully, he was rescued and then adopted by a loving family, but an infection meant he lost an eye. His owners say his unusual appearance does mean some kids are fr

When the image of this dog digging a hole in front of a gravestone first spread on the internet, people thought she was mourning her dead owner and wanted to see her owner again. But the truth turned out to be quite different. The photographer who took the picture is Vesna Mihajloski, who lives in Serbia. She approached the grave to see why the dog had dug a hole – and made a wonderful dis

Feeling restricted is no fun. This may be especially true for animals, whose instincts are to roam free and unhindered. Unfortunately, a common practice in Romania means this is not the case for many horses. In order to prevent them from escaping, horses’ front or hind legs are sometimes bound with chains. Veterinarian Ovidiu Rosu came across one such horse, and knew exactly what he had to

Wolves have a reputation for being aggressive and fierce creatures, and many people, including me, would be downright frightened to actually meet one face to face. The large grey wolf seen walking alongside Danielle in the beginning is named Kekoa, which in Hawaiian means “brave one.” Kekoa isn’t quite like other wolves, and she certainly doesn’t match the stereotype. While she

The urge to squash something that looks like a centipede does when it appears in your home can be strong! Unfortunately, we recently discovered that killing a house centipede can actually be a risky choice. Source: Flickr Centipedes often appear in dark, humid places. Often, one finds them in a bathroom or basement, and nearly anyone would immediately want to squash them or run. Some

Boasting a wingspan almost as wide as Tom Cruise is high, the giant golden-crowned bat looks terrifying when it’s flying spread-eagled through the air, its skinny furry body emphasizing the enormity of its wings. And when its roosting, it looks like a vampire, cloaked by its rubbery black cape. Despite its imposing size, the fruit-eating megabat – part of a species native to the Philippines

Skinny, balding and completely alone. This “werewolf” stood by the side of the road for several months. His skin was hard and scaly, his tail was pointy and broken. What was left of his black fur was tattered and stood straight up on his neck. The dog probably hadn’t eaten a proper meal in weeks and he could barely walk. Nobody knew anything about the strange creature except that he
