Roadkill is a huge problem for many cities, and to solve this crisis, Los Angeles decided to implement the world's largest wildlife bridge that will extend over US Highway 101, a 10-lane freeway. The animal overpass will connect various parts of the Santa Monica Moutain in order to protect mountain lions and other wildlife. The 10-lane highway restricted many animals from roaming as they would naturally, however, the green bridge will now allow mountain lions to socialize and mate, significantly increasing their odds of surviving as a species. The bridge has a budget of $87 million USD and recently entered the final design phase. If all goes to plan, the bridge should open by 2023. Well done, L.A!

With their piercing eyes and special coat patterns, every Australian Shepherd is one of a kind, though almost every Aussie is driven by the same desire: to herd and to protect. As the cowboy's herding dog of choice, an Aussie is best known as a working dog, but these beautifully unique pups make wonderful family companions as well. Just look at these precious videos of Aussies doing funny things and you will fall in love. Guaranteed.
These cats are yelling. Loud. What ever happened to the soft Meow?
By the way, did you know cats don't even meow around each other? They only do it with us.
Aren't we lucky?
It's not something we've ever noticed before but we're thankful someone did!
Tumblr user, todaysbird, shared a series of pics of crows infiltrating other bird groups like it's no big deal.
Perhaps, it isn't a big deal...or perhaps they're secretly expanding their bird army, by recruiting other bird species. Who knows.
In the meantime, we'll be enjoying these random pics and act as if we aren't onto their ploy...

Meet BenBen, the saddest looking orange tabby we've ever seen! Poor BenBen completely gave up hope on finding a forever home and it nearly took his life... thankfully, kind souls were able to look at BenBen's sweet face and realize he had so much love to offer, and so much life to him.
This is BenBen's story. And yes, you caught us, we we're crying... and you will be, too. Don't worry too much though, a lot of happy tears were involved.

"How do you know if your cat is bored?"
From a feline ethological point of view, AnimalWised dives into this question. Starting with explaining symptoms of a bored cat so help their humans recognize it early and change up their routine. Symptoms like, does your cat ignore you? Do they jump on your feet? Do they sleep more than usual?
I know what you're thinking -- cat's sleep like 14-16 hours a day so if that's a sign of boredom -- aren't ALL cats considered "bored"?
Not necessarily. Watch to find out more.
