Even more animal BFFs

I'd like to say this is in honor of my BFF Sarah coming to my fair city for Christmas, but really it's just because someone posted it somewhere else and I instantly knew it was perfect holiday fodder for this blog. It's a "real life Thumper and Bambi"! With a real smooth jazz soundtrack!!!

Deer and bunny BFF

In honor of last week's finale of "Paris Hilton's My New BFF": the kinkajou

I don't know how it happened, but somehow SOMEHOW I saw almost every episode of the MTV soon-to-be-classic Paris Hilton's My New BFF, and once it ended last week (or maybe two weeks ago? I am too lazy to look it up), there was a giant, pink, reality show shaped hole in my heart. And so, to keep the magic alive, here's a tribute to the exotic pet who totally WASN'T Hilton's BFF...the kinkajou who bit her.

Kinkajous are nocturnal rainforest dwellers, which means they are PARTY ANIMALS!!!! Alas this perfect pairing was not a match made in heaven, and Paris' new BFF is now a human, Brittany Flickinger.

The littlest froggie

This little fellow was discovered on the same animal-findin' expedition as the loung-a-roo pictured first in the post below. Dude is only 0.6in long and is so tiny that he was "detected only when it produced a soft call from among leaves on the steepest part of the forest floor," according to National Geographic.

Totally tree kangaroos!

This golden-mantled tree kangaroo was recently discovered maxin' and relaxin' with a crew of super chill scientists who discovered a ton of new animals (or in the case of this cute little dude, never before known to inhabit Indonesia).




And this Goodfellow's tree kangaroo was discovered when I tried googling the guy above. Clearly it's safe to say that when nature puts a kangaroo in a tree, the internet wins.




Ahhhh!!!

Tiny tarsiers possibly even more awesome than big ones

Behold, the pygmy tarsier. Long thought extinct, they were recently discovered alive and adorable (?) in Indonesia. MSNBC really brought this story to the fore with their recently published piece entitled (of course) Real life furbies rediscovered. Hey-yoooo!!! Everybody knows nothing makes online news readers click "read more" faster than an outdated Christmas toy reference!!!

More awesome pictures of lizards in outfits!

My dream: a bartender lizard


This site is incredible. You can get an anti-Bush or a cowboy lizard outfit/harness!!!

Ok, so it's not an outfit, but best buddies are the greatest accessory!!!
