While I was conducting Walrus related research, I came upone this film strip of a Walrus playing a saxaphone along side a human being. I had no idea they were this intelligent.
Also, here’s a video of a mother walrus and a baby walrus. It is a little known fact that walruses and bears have a mutually respectful relationship. Although they are competitors for food, it is a friendly rivalry. Walruses and bears have even been observed sharing resources during particulaly cold or sparse winters.
I guess there’s this baby giraffe in Germany that just started walking. Over-all I have positive feelings about this event. I’m glad when any giraffe learns to walk. Unfortunately the only video is on CNN and, since they’re losers, I can’t embed it. So, until I can get footage of Katja, here’s a sweet ice cream cone being eaten by an even sweeter giraffe!
We all know the Chinese are wrong about everything and this is no exception. 2008 is the year of the rat? I don’t think so. 2008 is the year of the polar bear. It is a great honor to present to the world this bear:
After Knut, Flocke and now this new cub, Germany would be a pretty sweet place to visit (for the zoos). I’m sure there will be more information on this little fellow to come and it will be right here.
Some zoo in the UK has a SWEET new giraffe. Margret is very small for a giraffe, standing only about 5′ tall. But that doesn’t stop her from raging. Right now, CNN has the best video of Margret but, unfortch, it hasn’t shown up on youtube yet. Here’s a link. Youtube DOES have a video of Margret. It’ll have to do for now.
Pandas are probably the most popular bear in the world but the suffer from low libido/ED. So, it isn’t surprising that panda cubs are few and far between. And that makes it even more exciting when one is born. Today is a happy day, my friends. A really happy one.
As the most comprehensive and well respected bear-oriented webpage in the universe, it is our honor to introduce bear lovers worldwide to Fu Long:
