Syrian Hamsters
These furry bags of joy love desert climates and stuffing as much food into their cheek pouches as possible—in fact, their Arabic name roughly translates as “Mr. Saddlebags.” Not joking. Full story

Wiener Dog Races!
In August, Montreal held its fifth annual wiener-dog race day. Prizes were awarded for the fastest runner, best costume, and bobbing for wieners—that’s like bobbing for apples but with dogs and cocktail wieners, and it’s as amazing as it sounds. Full story

Pygmy Shetland Ponies
Don’t let their size fool you, pygmy Shetland ponies like to pig out big time. Carrots, apples, grass—they love it all, and will do just about anything to get food in their mouths. Running through barbed wire or risking a zap from an electric fence? Doesn’t faze them. Full story
-
Badgers
A badger cub is just like an annoying little brother who's constantly getting into trouble, usually while covered head to toe in bits of food and dirt. You can't help but love them, even if they smell a little like poop. Full story
