It really is! I didn't think the bufallo would survive. How could it run back to the herd that way? Pretty amazing stuff. Masha Allah...

Animals rock. ^^

I feel sorry for the lionesses, though. All that work for nothing.

I found this video and got something I *completely* wasn't expecting, for several reasons. Anyway, watch it -- the miracles of nature never cease to amaze me.

That makes me wanna go back to the Caribbean so much. I've been told that the bio-luminesence is amazing to swim through (I only did one night dive and it wasn't out that night). If you turn off your flash light and wave your hand in front of your face it traces it all out in this glowing trail. I can't wait to go back.

Yeah -- I didn't even think it was physically *possible* for an octopus to do that.

Was it even eating the sharks or was it just killing it for fun? This is why you always dive with a knife.

Since when do animals kill for fun?

I thought only we humans were 'evolved' enough for this.
