People Can’t Get Over How Huge Kangaroos Are
What is it that comes to your mind when you think about kangaroos? More than likely, you think about creatures that hop around Down Under and make great cartoon characters.

Mother Elephant Asks Humans for Help to Save her Endangered Calf
Mothers would do anything for their children. The love they have knows no bounds — whether they’re humans or animals. From birth, mother and child build their bond through feeding and teaching them survival. Most animals cling to their mothers for about 3 months before gaining independence. Within those months, babies are nurtured and protected in a home built by their mom. There’s nothing more comforting than having a mother who loves and cares for you even before you are born.
