As if finding an alligator in the back window of a car wasn’t enough. A 69-year-old Florida woman found an 8-foot-long alligator in her kitchen. What, did he have the munchies?
The woman thinks the gator pushed through the back porch screen door and then just walked in through the […]

Scientists at an aquarium in the UK have made an odd discovery. One of their recently acquired octopuses is missing two of its eight legs.
Dubbed Henry the Hexapus, it seems that this guy suffers from a birth defect where two of the sets of legs failed to separate during gestation.

There is very little I can say about this video that it doesn’t say for itself. I wish I had a trunk monkey.
By the by, check out the service from where we got the video. Utterz.com is a really cool service where you can automatically post to your blog just by making a phone […]

You may not know it, but cows are actually one of the rudest animals around. In fact, they belch so frequently and in such large numbers that the methane they release may contribute to global warming.
One Swedish university has taken this very seriously and been awarded $590,000 in funds to research the phenomenon. According […]

This just seems all too appropriate now that I have just finished watching the entire original Planet of the Apes movie series on AMC. According to researchers examining macaque monkeys in Indonesia, some males "pay" their mates for sex by grooming.
Apparently the likelihood that a female would have sex with a male was increased by […]
