Meet the world’s smallest bear: the sun bear (Helarctos malayanus). Named for the golden patch on its chest, this species typically weighs only around 103 pounds (47 kilograms)—about half the size of an American black bear! The sun bear, which can be found in parts of Southeast Asia, is an excellent climber and uses its long claws to help it move from tree to tree. This bear sometimes even makes nests of branches high in the treetops, where it snoozes up to 128 feet (40 meter) off the ground.

fun fact! wolves and ravens have a symbiotic relationship with each other. the raven wants to eat good meat from elk, but her beak isn't sharp enough to break the hide. the wolf wants to find good hunting, but that can be difficult. so the raven leads the wolf to a carcass or herd of elk, and she rewards her by opening the hide so that the raven can eat from it!

7 Cutest Baby Animals You’ll Ever See!

Horses? Nope!

Mules!

What are mules?

Mules are a crossbreed of a horse and donkey! Mules are almost always infertile, except occasionally mollies (female mules) will be able to have babies with horse or donkey stallions!

Why are they infertile?

They only have 63 chromosomes! Since 63 is not divisible into pairs, it causes issues during reproduction.

What are they used for?

Mules are commonly used as working animals and are great pack animals. They are also much better at navigating rough terrain compared to horses.

Thank you for coming to my mule talk :3

Koalas, the beloved marsupials of Australia, are well-known for their endearing appearance and unique lifestyle. However, one fascinating aspect of their existence often remains overlooked—their perpetual eucalyptus 'high' that lasts throughout the year. These charming creatures have an insatiable appetite for eucalyptus leaves, which not only serve as their primary source of nourishment but also contain potent compounds with mild psychoactive properties. As they consume copious amounts of these aromatic leaves, a chemical reaction takes place within their bodies, resulting in a state of contentedness and relaxation. The constant intake of eucalyptus leaves keeps their systems continuously flooded with these compounds, maintaining their blissful demeanor all year round. This natural phenomenon has earned them the endearing reputation of being nature's eternal 'stoners,' a quirky and captivating trait that further cements their position as one of the world's most unique and cherished animal species.
