'Hoo' knew?! The owl known as Kaln, is actually a female! Kaln first arrived at Gloucester's Barn Owl Centre as a chick in 1996, and the bird's gender had never actually been checked because the bird was so healthy, according to Vincent Jones, who set up the centre.

BBC created a documentary that they believed only people would enjoy, especially cat lovers! However, we are pretty sure they did not expect that the real big fans of the show... would be the "Big Cats" second cousin twice removed! Or to put it more simply... the charming house cats we love! Just take a look for yourself!
Cats are at a crucial point in their evolutionary journey as they transform from solitary hunters to domestic pets, a study by the BBC and the Royal Veterinary College has revealed. Our felines are adapting quickly to life in densely-packed cities, changing their behaviour to fit in with our 21st Century lives. They are time-sharing territory with other cats, killing less prey and learning to communicate with each other and people, research for BBC Two's Cat Watch 2014 found. Here is how our felines experience the world.
Penguins might not be able to fly like other birds, but they sure can jump!
