(Gore) While in Kenya, YouTuber petts1 came upon a pride of lions that crashed a bask of crocodiles’ party, bullying their way into a free lunch. Now we know where this fella gets its bravery from.

Ayumu the chimp proves that in some ways, the apes have capacities which exceed most of us – as he memorizes complex numeric patterns faster and more accurately than your average child genius.

One thing is certain – the internet loves cats. There’s even a meme about a very long cat. This is not that cat. This kitty just has a really long tongue, and an amazing amount of tolerance for its owner.

The Woodland Zoo’s Lil’ Bear – the grizzly bear – and Tala – the wolf – are lifelong friends. Note the cautious dog. Perhaps it knows that they’ll be vastly different when they grow up.

Injured in a failed attempt to steal a booby chick from its parents, this crab intentionally amputates its broken limb because he has dishonored his clan safe in the knowledge that it will grow again.

Terry Fan’s idea of a real life Care Bear. We’d like to think that this bad dude was originally brown before he tore the fur out of Share Bear and Cheer Bear. Also available as prints and gadget skins.

Dogs may think they have cornered the market on fetching stuff, but they might face some stiff, winged competition – assuming penguins some day become popular house pets.

Henry Edmonds, you’ve doomed us all. Boots & Cats is not something that one can like or hate. It just burrows into your mind, never to be forgotten. Dance clubs will never be the same.

A teaser for the highly intriguing Wastelander Panda. According to creator Epic Films, it will be a TV series about the last panda on a post-apocalyptic Earth. We have so many questions.
