Caught in the Act! Zoo Leopard Eats Squirrel
Originally posted 08/01/2012 04:20PM
What began as a fun day at the zoo ended with a lesson in the sometimes brutal nature of life.
A man accompanying a boy to the zoo caught the circle of life on camera when a snow leopard attacked – and devoured – a squirrel in its enclosure.
"Look, Justice, the tiger is coming to talk to you!" the man says excitedly, right before the big cat pounces on its prey.

Shiba Inu Puppy Cam Returns with Fourth Litter
Originally posted 06/07/2012 06:00PM
We've been waiting all year to say these words: The Puppy Cam is back.
It's been four years and four litters since the Internet discovered that watching lumpy, wiggly mounds of fluff could be the most engrossing and blood-pressure-reducing activity known to man, and it's a thrill to say hello to the latest group of Shiba Inu puppies from San Francisco.
This litter, named the D-Team, consists of five puppies: boys Dalichi and Dango, which means dumpling (could this get any cuter?), and girls Dosha, Daisuki and Dakota (the only one in the litter with a cream-colored coat).

Kristen Bell has a thing for sloths – by now, the whole world knows this.
The actress outed herself as an extreme sloth enthusiast this week when she told Ellen DeGeneres the story of how she suffered an all-out meltdown after fiancé Dax Shepard surprised her with a sloth visit for her birthday. What's there to love – so much – about the tree-dwelling animals?
"Whenever I'm feeling down, I Google 'baby sloth videos,'" she once said. "I challenge you to do it right now if you're in a bad mood and not absolutely have a smile on your face."

My Extreme Animal Phobia: Will You Watch?
Originally posted 10/21/2011 05:00PM
What's the most frightening creature you can think of? Marvin Cruz, a burly, 47-year-old man with tattoos and a shaved head, can't think of anything worse than being in the same room as a puppy.
In fact, his fear of pit bulls is so debilitating that he cries at the sight of a pit bull puppy at a dog park.
Marvin is just one of the subjects of Animal Planet's My Extreme Animal Phobia, a series in which people who fear everything from birds to snakes to moths go through immersion-therapy treatment with psychologist Dr. Robin Zasio in order to overcome their phobias.

In the new movie 50/50, actors Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogan put a funny spin on cancer – with help from a furry friend.
Gordon-Levitt, who plays a man suffering from a rare form of cancer, seems less than thrilled when his on-screen girlfriend (Bryce Dallas Howard) gives him a retired racing dog named Skeletor to help with the healing process.
"What, does he have a medical license?" he says, staring blankly at the doe-eyed pooch who looks like he just wants a hug.

An interview with the President of the United States is serious business, and Scholastic News kid reporters Jacob Schroeder and Topanga Sena kept things very professional for their interview with President Barack Obama.
The two members of the Scholastic Kids Press Corps asked their subject tough questions about the country's challenges and the importance of a good education, and they kept straight faces throughout the interview. But the President had other ideas.

When a baby gets on a scale, it's often a milestone of growth – and it's no different for the San Diego Zoo's newest hippo calf, 5-month-old Adhama, who last weighed in at just under 500 lbs.
The zoo's star baby has been captivating visitors since he was born (this, too, happened in front of an audience). He's been performing water ballets and exhibiting play behavior like biting his mother's face, which helps the teething process.
