5 Real Animal Friendships Straight Out of a Disney Movie
Cartoons notwithstanding, we are generally raised with the knowledge that animals kill one another. The process is messy, but it's all a part of an intricate balance; the death of one creature provides life for another. But just sometimes, vicious carnivores of the world take an appraising look at centuries of biological necessity, then turn their back on it and say, "Screw that noise, let's be friends." #5. Snake Decides a Hamster Is Better as a Roommate Hamsters, like most rodents, are the meal of choice for many snakes. And then there's Japan. Aochan is a Japanese rat snake held at a Tokyo zoo. So they took a female dwarf hamster, dropped her into Aochan's cage and waited for nature to take its course. Then pulled the blanket over his head and gave him a Dutch Oven. Did Aochan fly into a mindless rage, seeing his pride as a rat snake being torn to shreds by this overtly friendly furball? We feel it's worth noting that Aochan wasn't just a random snake that likes to eat rodents. #4. #3.

Law Of The Wild :: SeenAndShared.com :: Best Quality!
The Law Of The Wild says "Kill ONLY when you are hungry." Photographer Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenya's Masai Mara in October last year, said he was astounded by what he saw: *UPDATE: While these pictures are indeed real, the outcome after the encounter below did not fare well for the young deer.
6 Creepy Animal Behaviors That Science Can't Explain
Animals do a lot of strange things: dogs will go after their own butts for hours, some fish fly and if some people are to be believed, sheep have the amazing ability to attract New Zealanders and Scotsmen. But there are some things about the animal world that leave the smartest of us scratching their heads in puzzlement saying, "Fucked if I know..." One of the major things that separate humans from animals is that most lower life forms have an intense will to live. Unless they are defending their babies or food, most animals will prefer to run off than fight, because life is precious. Plus, given the fact that most don't really appear to be all that self aware, the likelihood of goth hamsters and emo pigeons seems pretty thin. Then why do some animals just up and decide to off themselves sometimes? And lets not forget Jatinga, India, where hundreds of birds from several species dive into the ground to kill themselves every year. How Long Has This Been Going On? That's a tough one.
6 Terrifying Diseases That Science Can't Explain
The world is full of some pretty awful diseases, including but not limited to viruses that leave you with your limbs rotting off (CAUTION! Pictures!) or pooping yourself to death in hours. What could be worse than getting diagnosed with one of those? How about having a doctor stand over your death bed, shrug his shoulders and say, "I dunno, magic?" After all, nothing is scarier than the unknown, and science can't explain the first thing about some pretty horrific diseases, and even less about how to stop them. Firmly in the category of "things somehow made more terrifying by a ridiculous name," the Dancing Plague was an actual disease that killed people. Deadlier than a crocodile with rabies and a machine gun. Now, you may be thinking that "tackling and forcibly stopping" the people who were literally dancing themselves to death may be a sound idea for preventing the afflicted from dying. "Well, they're not dancing anymore, are they?" The Mystery: Stiff Person Syndrome Because he's fat.
6 Terrifying Ways Crows Are Way Smarter Than You Think
Mankind has a long and checkered past with crows and ravens: They have been feared as symbols of death, because they're all black and scary, revered as creators of the world because, well, it was either them or the seagulls, and worshiped as trickster gods, because of their baffling intelligence. Intelligent enough, in fact, for us to start worrying ... #6. They Can Remember Your Face Next time you see a group of crows, look closely. Try to remember which one is which, and see if you can tell the difference between them the next time you pass. OK, so the scientists weren't just playing out horror movie fantasies -- they were testing whether the crows could recognize human faces or not. "Wow. Pretty soon, every single crow on the campus knew which masks meant trouble, and wanted the guys wearing them dead. Oh, and also none of the scientists were ever seen again. #5. I say, is that a west London accent I detect in that screaming gibberish? #4. One. They'll be back any minute now
