There’s a good escape. That’s what deer are best at though, getting away from things. This deer just happens to add a little flair to his escape.

Deer have it out for them from the moment they are born. Anything that can, wants to kill them. Deer are medium sized animals that average around 120 pounds in most places. They are a perfect meal for all sorts of predators from cougars to bear, or even birds or prey when they are young or dead roadside.

A deer’s only defense is really their running. If they can get away faster and run farther,...

A video of a groundhog and bobcat fighting came up on my feed today and I immediately assumed it would be yet another impressive display of skill from the bobcat. There’s no shortage of impressive feats these small but mighty cats have accomplished, from taking out rattlesnakes to clearing huge gaps over water.

Groundhogs, on the other hand, are notably less impressive…

While bobcats certainly aren’t too large, clocking in at up to 30 pounds, ground hogs weigh up to 13 pounds, so less than half. They’re pretty cute, but that’s...

A man walking his dog in the United Kingdom inadvertently helped archaeologists and geologists make surprising discoveries at a local beach, officials say.

Northumberland Coast National Landscape officials published a blog post about the recent discoveries last week. The dog walker was on a stroll at Foxton Bay in Northumberland, located in North East England, when he spotted unusual pits near the shore.

Officials thought that the pits could possibly be graves dating back to the Bronze Age or the medieval era. But experts changed their minds after an excavation.

“These pits are thought to be bait or fish tanks from the post-medieval or modern periods rather than burial...

That sixth-sense maternal instinct really kicked in here for a big mama elephant who was with her calf at a watering hole, just trying to get a little hydration before being surprised by a killer crocodile lurking in the murky pond.

Hat tip to USA TODAY for the find on this one, and what an incredible job the mom did here to stomp out that damn croc and send it on its way.
