When Small Animals Become Giant Animals

Blah. I can’t believe that rat like this really exist! This is weird. And this snails, bugs… Super-size isn’t just the American way; it seems Nature has been dealing out enormous portions for thousands of years – and the fast food nation just got on the bandwagon. Yep, through the course of evolution, many gigantic species have come to light, quite a few of which have gone back to the

When Crocodile Very Hungry

Scenes from the Gulf of Mexico

Based on recently revised estimates, BP's ruptured oil well at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico continues to leak 25,000 to 30,000 barrels of oil a day.

Geniale chimpansee

The premise of this video is ludicrous. I agree, that chimp IS smart, but we the viewers never saw it had access to water, so it's really a biased video when it says "But you never thought of that, did you?" Of course not, I didn't know it had access to water!? It's like saying "How can Johnny cover 20 miles in the wilderness in less than 2 hours" and not letting you know he has access to a

Can big dogs and little dogs live in harmony?

10 Hagfish According to the fossil record, hagfish have existed for over 300 million years, which means they were already old when dinosaurs took over the world!

Spicebush Swallowtail Caterpillar

Spicebush Swallowtail is a fairly black swallowtail butterfly. And it is the state butterfly of Mississippi. But it looks the best when it is still a caterpillar.
