eggs

As cat people, we sometimes struggle to convince others that cats are actually nice. 

But this new trending challenge on TikTok might just be the proof we all needed.

The concept is simple: cat owners on TikTok are giving their kitties eggs to see if they'll "protect" them and then share the adorable results. 

The trend was presumably started by TikTok user @annao, since it was the earliest TikTok we could find.  

As expected, the results will give you the heart eyes. 

Another uplifting story to come from this lock-down mess. As scary as times might be, there's still some beauty in this world and that beauty comes in the form of mother nature, reclaiming back her world. 

We've seen less air pollution, deers chilling in the streets of Japan, clear waters that brought back the return of certain sea life. And now, with Eastern India under lock-down, sea turtles who are famously vunerable and threatened by humans and our pollution, were left completely undisturbed to lay an estimate of 60 million eggs. 

That means hundreds of thousands olive tortoises reached the shore of Rushikulya beach and comfortably made their nests. 

So next time you're feeling down about the certain situation, remember these tortoises who were able to nest in complete tranquility this year. It might bring some sort of peace.

She didn't choose the wildlife nanny life, it chose her. 

Tumblr user ruby-white-rabbit shared that unexpectedly, an expecting turtle, has laid eggs in her yard. 

She is in no way prepared to be a mother, and knows nothing about reptiles. But it was decided long before that she would be the chosen one to deliver these turtles. 

Tumblr user, despazito, couldn't wrap their head around vegan eating preferences and asked, "Vegans who refuse to even eat backyard eggs....why" 

The user tried pointing out eating eggs and honey might be not at all that unethical.

What are your thoughts?

Turtles are amazing animals. They can be traced back to the time of dinosaurs, they usually live around 70 years (tortoises reach around 150 or more years), and they're super cute. Sadly, as human development reaches the quietest of beaches, some turtle hatchlings are having trouble finding the ocean because of the confusing lights. But it's not all bad news! As well as being the problem (sorry turtles), we can also be the solution. Keep on reading to learn how you can help your little flippered friends live to be wise old creatures. 

This is hilarious! The artist 

Rachael Bale, a senior editor at National Geographic, documented the story of a family of geese after the mother laid eggs on the third floor of the network's building in Washington DC. The tale began in early April when the eggs were laid and ended on Tuesday when the family were taken to safety.

"Please make this post go viral, or at least get ill", asked a Walmart shopper by the name of  Scott Hann who was pulling into the parking lot when he noticed an adult Canadian goose parked among the cars. Here is his post and the photos he attached.
