Polar Bear Cub Is Melting Hearts By Snuggling Into Mama Bear In Viral Video
Polar bears are the largest bears in the world weighing up to 1,300 pounds and standing up to 9-feet tall. They are fantastic swimmers, incredibly strong, and amazing mothers. Polar bears give birth to one or two cubs at a time and spend the next two and a half years raising them. The cubs learn how to hunt, swim, and survive on their own. Just like children, cubs love to nap with their mothers. A video clip shared by ABC News shows a polar bear cub nestling into its mother’s back for a nap, but it can’t stop wiggling around. The...

This story was originally shared on The Animal Rescue Site. Submit your own rescue story here. Your story just might be the next to be featured on our blog!

An Animal Control Officer’s Lesson in Empathy
The call was fairly routine, as animal neglect complaints go. The dog in question, a loyal companion to an elderly woman living alone, was in pretty rough shape. Rough enough that it was a pretty clear-cut case of neglect. The woman, who obviously loved her pet, seemed to be facing multiple struggles.

In my early career as a cruelty investigator for the City of Dallas, I was driven by a sense of duty to protect the...
