The Royal Antelope is the world’s smallest species of antelope, standing only 10-12 inches high as adults, and this little fawn is only about half of that height! Born February 23 at Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo, the baby appears healthy and mom has proven attentive.
Shy, nocturnal, typically solitary, and obviously mini, it’s tough to catch a glimpse of this reclusive species in the wild. However, if you do stumble upon one in an African forest, their slender but powerful get-away sticks allow them to jump up to 8 feet in a single bound! (via)

O.M.G. I used to shine a lazer for my guppies and they would go berserk, but they never swam in circles like that!

Oh my GOD, this is just about the cutest damn thing I have ever seen. The noises they make! Their little faces! And I know their hair is super wiry, but THEY LOOK SO FLUFFY.
That’s it. I’m getting a pet sloth and NO ONE CAN STOP ME.
The Pygmy Leaf Chameleon, scarcely bigger than an ant, is one of the world’s smallest reptiles. This pair is not mating, the male is simply catching a ride on the back of the female until the time is right. (Madagascar - BBC)

A tiger mother lost her cubs from premature labour. Shortly after she became depressed and her health declined, and she was diagnosed with depression. So they wrapped up piglets in tiger cloth, and gave them to the tiger. The tiger now loves these pigs and treats them like her babies.
