Genetic Mutation Common in Labradors Makes Them Hungrier, But Also Gives Them Slower Metabolism
Labrador retrievers are a very popular breed, serving as devoted family members in homes across the world.

While it dove down and resurfaced, apparently feeding, the crew was able to take photos of the animal over a 45-minute...
