At least it was for one wildebeest that was, quite literally, looking into the jaws of death as the jaws of a huge crocodile with its mouth agape tried its dead level beast to have the wildebeest for lunch as was crossing a river that was crocodile infested. It appeared that the juvenile wildebeest was about to be eaten for lunch. However, as so often is the case, timing is everything. Fortunately for this young wildebeest, the crocodile misjudged its attack by a mere fraction a second.
Many furniture designers have come up with some rather unusual designs for a table in the past. However, there has never been one designed to be a resting spot for the family cat; until now that is. With its glass top and hammock as a lounging place for “Garfield”, it has to be one of a kind.

Waters of the east coast of Japan are occupied by swarms of giant jellyfish. The local residents say that they have never seen jellyfish of such enormous size. The jellyfish reach about two meters in diameter and weigh around 200 kilograms.

Just wanna warn you directly, if you stare for a long time at these gifs, it can make you really “motion sick.”
So look carefully
Now you’ll see what a cat can bear when he wants to sleep :)
He doesn’t mind anything.

Edited. This is a mouse deer or Chevrotain, little funny creature living in the tropical forests of Africa, India, Sri Lanka, and South-east Asia. They try to keep low profile and have primitive features, closer to pigs.
They also have short, thin legs which leave them lacking in agility but also helps to run through the dense foliage of their environment.
Incredible! I have never heard or seen something like this before.

A very cute couple, really reminiscent of Tom and Jerry.
But I fear that in life everything can end up differently than in a cartoon ;)

Baloo the bear (1000 pounds), Leo the Lion (350 pounds) and Shere Khan the tiger (350 pounds) have the most unusual and unlikely friendship between them.
They were rescued eight years ago during a police drugs raid in Atlanta, Georgia. The three friends were only cubs at the time and were kept by drug barons.
After the rescue they were sent to the Noah's Ark animal rescue centre in Locust Grove, Georgia, and it was decided to keep the animals together.

For me, those are the ugliest cats ever, but luckily, there are people who love them despite their look.
Take a look at those ‘naked’ cats after the jump..
2 geologists have rescued two young deer which were stuck on the middle of a frozen lake.
A very good deed that saved the lives of those two poor creatures.
Take a look..
Little pandas are trying to escape from a baby enclosure. But it didn’t work out :)

This is how leeches are produced in one Russian leech farm. More than 3 500 000 are produced there each year.
We’ve already posted some pictures from another Russian leech farm but here you have a lot more pictures.

This panda has executed a really nice trick and the best part is that he did it while he was sleeping. I challenge you to do better :))

This blue 4-year-old Great Dane named George is a real giant. He could be the world’s tallest dog! He is 43 inches tall (from paw to shoulder), 7ft 3ins (from nose to tail) and weighs 245lbs (111kg)! Another quite interesting detail: George consumes 110 pounds of food every month!!
His owners are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to see if he’s actually the tallest dog in the world..
Pictures are really impressive!
Andy and Pike, 2 polar bears at the San Francisco Zoo had a nice gift for the first day of winter. Indeed, 10 tons of donated ice was turned in snow and shot into their exhibit to create a fun playground on December 21.
Look how happy they are, it’s the best gift they could offer to those two polar bears, except freedom and real snow…
