A pet sleeping next to you feeling so safe and comfy is genuinely the most any human can really ask for
It makes you feel like maybe you aren’t so bad. You might even be good

Outside of the Wonders of Life pavilion at Epcot Center, 2000.
I this photo you get to see the DNA strand, pavilion signage, and Cranium Command signage leading up to the pavilion.
The pavilion closed in 2007 and now sits empty awaiting a new project

Maxwell was rescued from Nairobi National Park as a calf. He's blind – and because rhinos use vision to assess rivals, he can never safely return to the wild. We built him a boma within the National Park, a special home to call his own, enjoy mud baths and interact with neighbours: swt.bio/maxwell

Wamata has largely accepted she's no longer the baby – but some days, she tries to wrest back her coveted position! She sat atop Kipekee hoping to reclaim the spotlight, but predictably, every alarm bell went off and Kipekee was cosseted away.

For today’s random Disney memory I present to you Yellow Rain Ponchos!
Until around 2003 Disney World used to be covered with Yellow Ponchos when it rained in the parks and around the resort. Around 2003, these yellow ponchos were “retired” and the clear ponchos were introduced

Animal lovers, have you ever heard of the zebra duiker? This small ungulate can be found in parts of West Africa. Adults typically weigh ~44 lbs (20 kg)—no larger than a medium-sized dog! They are rarely seen in the wild.

Starting with Stanford's firing of Troy Taylor in March, Michigan is the 30th FBS program looking to replace a head coach in this cycle.
That doesn't even include Ohio, which put Brian Smith on paid leave without explanation.

1979 was the year of APOCALYPSE NOW and ALL THAT JAZZ. Worst year of cinema ever? No. Not even close.
Women's Wear Daily, December 10, 1979. Calling a movie "the worst film ever made" because it did not live up to your expectations is by no means a recent phenomenon.

Have you ever seen a piebald deer? This rare genetic mutation causes an estimated 1 in 1,000 white-tailed deer to have unique white & brown coats. While beautiful, piebald deer can suffer from other genetic issues, like shortened legs or arched spines.
