It's the Animals, Didiot!

Magellanic Penguins of Patagonia

We spotted this adorable Earthling, a Magellan Penguin, thousands of miles from his icy home in southern Chile. He had actually reached Peru’s coast. We think he got lost searching for food and caught a ride on the wrong ocean current. Friendly human scientists at the National Paracas Reserve in southern Peru helped the penguin with his injured wing, possibly caused by a fishing net. Now they are trying to help him find his way back home. More on this story at Seabirds.org

The King Penguin is the second largest of all penguins at about 3 feet (90 cm). They live in the South Atlantic, including the Falkland Islands and Tierra del Fuego. They love to eat small fish, especially squid and lanternfish.

The orca grow a whopping 27 to 33 feet long (8 to 10 m) and weighs more than 8,000 to 12,000 pounds (3.6 to 5.4 kg). Humans are its only enemy.

Bengal Tiger Befriends Bottlenose Dolphin

 

I, Dink, have been all over the galaxy in my short 5,076 years of life. I have seen quite a few unusual things. However, I was quite surprised to find these two Earthlings, in close proximity to each other. One is a 14-month-old Atlantic bottlenose dolphin and the other is a six-month-old Bengal tiger.

I cannot imagine this could have happened without the help of humans. What do you think the dolphin thinks about this enormous cat? What do you think this enormous cat is thinking about this dolphin?

Here is what these two animals have in common:

1. Both are mammals. Warm blooded and they nurse their young.

Save the Chinook Salmon

I spotted these beautiful Chinook Salmon swimming in an Alaskan waterway. These beautiful Earthlings spend 1 to 8 years in the ocean then return home to the stream where they were born in order to spawn.

What is the Chinook salmon to do as humans destroy their habitat? Humans scientists tell us that over the past few years the number of Chinook salmon leaving the rivers in the Pacific Northwest have dropped. The Chinook salmon could be extinct by 2016.
