My dog, Rascal, is a weird Chihuahua mix - a mane of hair around his head and nothing anywhere else. He is what the breed people call “party colors”…which makes me laugh, because Rascal is a homebody and prefers a warm lap to a cool beer.
The world’s smallest antelope, Dik-Diks reach only 12”-16” in adulthood. On September 10th, the Phoenix Zoo welcomed a newborn Dik-Dik to first-time mother “Gidget.” Weighing under 2lbs, smaller than most guinea pigs, the tiny calf has grown quickly since birth. (via zooborns)
