Tigers are such incredible, strong and unique cats. What makes them unique? First of all, tigers are the largest cats in the world! They are the embodiment of bravery, competitiveness and self-confidence. The are also difference from other wildcats due to their solitary nature. 

Not only that, they have a unique marking on the backs of their ears, a white spot that resembles that of a set of eyes. This marking is called 'ocelli,' according to Tigers.org. But why would an animal so dangerous need such a unique pattern? Find out below! 

It called a 'Cat Flehman Response', and it's also known as the cat 'stinky face'. And while the face may look silly, bizarre, or even sometimes concerning, there's actually a scientific reason behind the phenomenon!

Penguins aren't exactly formidable creatures, are they? Although Emperor penguins can reach up to 4 feet 2 inches, they always seem super friendly and cute. Now imagine a penguin the same height as you. That changes things. Penguins the size of humans... the idea sounds like it comes from science fiction. But it actually just comes from science. It was recently discovered that giant penguins used to exist. We are not kidding. 

How many times have you come across an animal that seemed alone or a skunk or possum in your yard and didn't know what to do? 

Here are some really helpful posters that tell you what to do in many of these cases. 

You can say that the artist, Petechka Odnobokov (Peter, for short), is larger than life! Peter places these images of giant cats (who you may have seen circulating the interwebs) in urban, and not so urban landscapes. A man with glasses and a beard is also present in each and every photo, this is Peter himself! 

Peter is always looking at ease and relaxed in the pics as the giant felines roam about (or nap about). Peter writes under one of the photos, a photo with cats is a peculiar way of communicating with the world around him. This allows you to draw a bridge between his total isolation from childhood and the outside world with other people.

The world he has created is certainly better than our reality!

In other news... An interesting illusion picture of a crow went viral as users began to draw what looked like a super-muscular crow, or a crows head with a gorillas body. And thus, 'Crowilla' was born! Soon enough, scientists speak up about the image and explain the strange illusion. 

WOW! These animals sure are something special! 

Grasshoppers are green, ladybugs are red with black dots, dalmations have black spots... don't they? Nature can be so unpredictable and beautiful. Check out these beautiful creatures below:
