Kidnapped Baby Otters Were Neglected But They’ve Been Saved and Get Freedom and Food For First Time

image via : facebook.com

It is truly a tragic reality, that in so many places throughout the world, poachers hunt wild animals in order to illegally sell them to people wanting exotic pets.  It is common for babies to be kidnapped; they often go into shock, suffer from hunger and dehydration, and die before being sold. It is horrible that so many animals are taken and kidnapped from their natural habitat and frequently taken from their mothers before they are developmentally ready. This is just so heartbreaking especially when you see how adorable, sweet and innocent these itty bitty baby otters.

Thanks to the many animal-lover/advocates, like TV host Frank Cuesta, whom you will see in the video below, many animals get rescued and returned to the wild.  Cuesta resides in Thailand, where he hosts a show that has been compared to Steve Irwin. He explores, helps, studies and rescues wildlife just as the late great legend Steve Irwin did.

Cuesta is the hero of this story of a rescue of two baby otters, after he was tipped off as to their location, before they could be sold on the black market. He headed to the location and somehow managed to save them and get them away from the bad people who wanted to harm these poor sweet fur babies.

Having studied veterinary medicine, Cuesta knows that these orphaned otter pups not only have to have limited human exposure, but actually need to be trained to be afraid of people before being reintroduced into the wild.  This is necessary for their safety and for sustaining the otter population. Luckily Cuesta knows exactly what to do and these babies should soon be back in the wild and their natural habitat.

Unless you speak Spanish you won’t understand exactly what Cuesta is tenderly saying to the pups he has saved, but you will get the gist of it.  Hearing the darling babies squeaking as they are finally fed, is simply joyful, as is the fact that they will safely be returned to the wild. The sounds of pure happiness emanating from their adorable little faces made my heart melt into a million pieces. Have you ever heard a sound so adorable in your life? Let us know in the comments

Mommy Asks Bulldog How His Day Was. He Answers With a Funny Hissy Fit.

image via – youtube.com

Dogs often have mixed responses when it comes to talking to their owners. Some absolutely love chatting away and will readily jump into long, drawn out, full-blown conversations. Then there are those who are more reserved and quiet, making noises only when they feel like it, or are hungry and want to eat!

Bruley, the adorable French Bulldog in this video, falls into the former category. He has a whole lot to say and when his owner arrived home one day he launched right into it! From the moment the video begins the sweet little Frenchie is already jibber-jabbering away.

His mom interrupts to ask him who he is talking to and he manages to moan out a very convincing sounding “you!”

When she proceeds to inquire about how his day went, Bruley eagerly replies with a bit of whimpering and whining. It seems as if he’s had quite a rough day and isn’t all that happy about the way things are currently going. The best part is when it sounds like he actually says “Oh mom!” about midway trough the clip. Listen and see if you can pick up on what he’s saying because this dog may know a bit of English, seriously!

If you love watching adorable dogs throw mini tantrums and chatting away in the cutest possible manner, then check out this Frenchie in action.

Watch This Adorable Baby Fox Play With This Cute Baby Skunk

The two baby animals in this video make quite the unusual, and adorable, pair. They are Milo and Flower, the newest animal ambassadors for Amazing Animal Ambassadors. It looks like Flower really wants to play with her older brother Milo, as she playfully pounces on him and paws at his bushy tail.

Milo watches his baby sister closely and throws a couple of nips her way before sniffing her and running off. Perhaps he got a whiff of her skunk smell! The animal odd couple look so happy and adorable, and since they met when they were so young they should bond together well.

Milo is a Fennec fox and Flower is a striped skunk. Fennec foxes are the smallest species of fox in the world and hail from Africa, whereas striped skunks are found all over North America, from Northern Mexico to Southern Canada.

It’s safe to say that these two would have never met or come into contact, but once they met they hit it off and are now best friends. Flower is about 6 weeks old in the video, and Milo is about 5 months old.

They are both growing up fast and soon will be young adults. Hopefully they will remain best friends and continue to play with each other, because they truly make an awesome, adorable pair!

The Amazing Animal Ambassador program works to connect animals with audiences by providing hour long educational presentations that feature a variety of both common and exotic animals. Their animal ambassadors have visited classrooms, town libraries, summer camps, and other functions and places, bringing awe and delight to children and adults everywhere they go.

It never fails to amaze me how smart dogs are.  They are amazing problem solvers, as you will this in he video you are about to watch.  This little pup’s ‘dad’ wants him to learn how to walk down the front stairs outside of  their front door.  He puts him down and encourages him to do it!

The adorable little ball of fluff, fully gets what is expected of him.  He goes to one side then the other, scouting out the situation of the stairs.  “Hmmm (he seems to be thinking) I don’t think so”!  This little guy thinks quickly about what the best solution is to his dilemma.  Those stairs look like an obstacle course that just isn’t for him!

He thinks quickly about how he is going to make it down the stairs without using them. His unexpected solution is laugh out loud hilarious!  He surprises everyone with what he does and laughter abounds.  Hope you enjoy this funny video as much as I did!

Every Time This Cockatoo’s Human Puts On His Favorite Song He Has The Funniest Dance Moves

image via – facebook.com

Parrots are among the smartest species of birds in the world. The sometimes colorful, always clever, birds have long captured the imaginations and hearts of people everywhere. They are often quite playful and fun to interact with, and much more complex than a typical, average bird. In fact, parrots are anything but simple and they require a lot of attention, love, and training to truly thrive and be all that they can be. The beautiful snow white cockatoo in this video is proof of how energetic and fun loving parrots truly are.

Cockatoos are a sub-species of parrots and are recognizable by their less colorful plumage and showy head crests. The one seen here is named Louie the cockatoo, and he’s happily rocking out to the 70’s hit “Shake Your Groove Thing” by Peaches & Herb in this entertaining clip uploaded by Teresa Buxton to YouTube.

The boogieing bird bobs and dances to the catchy tune while his female friend cheers him on from off camera. The sprightly little fellow dances to the disco beat just as good, if not even better, than the dancers on Soul Train! He struts back and forth while pulling off some sweet moves and it’s awesome to see this bird’s energetic, hippity-hoppity display.

It’s safe to say this parrot has a superb natural talent and excellent dancing abilities. At several points Louie raises his stunning head crest and fans it out to show it off completely in all it’s glory. He seems to be having a fun time and appears to get really into the music.

His bird dance will make anyone smile and brighten the day! Interestingly, cockatoos love to dance and the beautiful birds share something in common with music history. They bear a striking resemblance to the king of rock and roll, Elvis himself, with their prominent feathered head crests.

The crests look like the popular 1950’s men’s hairstyle, the type that Elvis rocked, called the pompadour. All 21 species of cockatoos, which are parrots, have the movable head crest which is usually raised when the birds come in to land or when they are aroused.

Going off that information, it’s likely that Louie the cockatoo was excited by the music and he just had to rock out to it. It seems like he even manages to keep pace with the tune and overall he puts on a great show!

Watch These Brave People Rescue a Bear With a Bucket Stuck On His Head

image via – youtube.com

We’ve all heard the term “giving a bear hug”, but never have thought about it literally.  What ensues in the amazingly brave video footage you are about to watch below, is just that.  A picture of a young black bear who had been roaming around an area in western Pennsylvania, was taken by Krissy Elder.  She took the photo because the bear had an object, that appeared to be a bucket, stuck on it’s head.

Elder reported the situation to the Pennsylvania Game Commission, but was told that nothing could be done to help this poor bear, because it was healthy and “mobile.”  The photo was seen by Dean Hornberger and his girlfriend Samantha Eigenbrod, who were determined to help this poor creature.

As Dean is an animal rescue volunteer, he felt confident that he and some friends could rescue the bear, and release his head from the object that had been stuck there for nearly 2 months!

After several hours of searching, they were nearly ready to give up, when amazingly they sighted the bear on the side of the road.  Watching them attempt to catch and contain the bear in order to remove, what turned out to be a rubber air bag from a tractor trailer that was tightly attached by a metal ring around it’s head, will have you holding your breath!

Watching this chase and rescue, that took real guts on the part of these brave men, is extraordinary to watch.  It was truly a “bear hug”, in every way!
