Olly The Airport Cat

Not every airport is out there adopting a cat, but back in 2007 a stray tabby cat was seen wandering near Olympic House, the main administration building at the Manchester Airport in England. Office staff and flight attendants fell in love with the scruffy guy with the torn ear. They dubbed the ginger and white cat "Olly" for Olympic House and took up a collection to buy him is own "executive lounge" (luxury cat box).

Fiji Looking To Pay For Iguana Bounty Hunters!

by Arnold Carreiro

Invasive species stink. They kill native species, destroy property, and cause all kinds of trouble for the locals. The government of Fiji is sick of the invading green iguanas and are ready to reward lizard bounty hunters to get rid of them.

Gel Ant Farm! The Animal Video of the Day!!!

by John P. Barker

I had an ant farm when I was a kid, but it was made out of plastic and kind'a cheesy looking. This is something innovative (at least to me) and involves using various light sources to get the ants to build a home out of gel.

Giant Pink Slug Discovered In Australia

by Laurie Kay Olson

In May it was announced that a new species of slug had been discovered on Australia's Mount Kaputar. It doesn't sound like it's all that interesting unless you a big mollusk fan, but this is not your average garden slug. You're not going to find this bad boy lurking in the leaf litter around your yard anytime soon. This is a Giant Pink Slug.

Camels In The U.S. Army

by Laurie Kay Olson

Camels aren't the first animal you think of as being used in military service. Horses, mules, dogs, and even elephants come in far ahead of the camel. Yet in the mid-19th century the United States Army undertook a controversial experiment to use camels as pack animals in the Southwestern part of the country.

Snorkling with Orcas! Would that be "Snorcaling?" The Animal Video of the Day!!!

by John P. Barker

I'm not sure I would have the guts to do this. Orcas are big. And they eat seals, which are pretty much the size of humans. Maybe they don't eat humans because we're encased in various grades of plastic when in the water and we just don't taste good...

Paul Winter's Summer Solstice Dedicated To Help Save The African Elephants

by Ron Callari

To save African elephants, the illegal poaching for their ivory tusks and encroachment into their habitats must be stopped. But how can this be accomplished when demand for ivory by China and the Far East continues to find this trade so lucrative? One way is to attend this year's Paul Winter Summer Solstice Celebration at St John the Divine in NYC, June 22, 2013.

Big Cats Like Boxes Too! The Animal Video of the Day!!!

by John P. Barker

This is one of those things that never crossed my mind: What would a tiger do with a box? Apparently the same thing that a house cat does. Oh, and lions and lynx, and other giant felines apparently feel the same way...

Super Cow! The Augmented Animal Video of the Day!!!

by John P. Barker

While it doesn't wear a blue suit with a red cape, the super cow is definitely a bovine force to be reckoned with. No steroids are used to enhance this animal--it is purely through breeding. This video goes into detail about how it is done...
