Everybody Poops is a great book and a fun fact, as well. Watch along with horrified onlookers as this shameless bear does what some poor pool cleaner wishes he hadn't.

On The Today Show we learned that now hotels all over the country are trying to appeal to dogs. Basically they're being taken on far better vacations than I ever was as a kid. Thanks a lot mom and dad.

While we're not ones to judge, there's got to be something quite painful for the owner of a porcupine that acts like a dog. Good thing the guy in this video has a thick pair of gloves on!

Sun Valley Idaho's star cop, a 5-year-old German shepherd named Dax, was suspended last month for attacking a small schnauzer. Police Chief Cameron Daggett said that after some time off duty, "Dax will be receiving more training."

Yes, this is actually real.

Goodbye, geese. New York is planning to "reduce the number" of Canada geese in the state from 250,000 to 85,000. They're not shipping 170,000 geese off to a magical gooseland, though. They're killing them.

British brewery BrewDog is producing a $750 beer called "The End of History Ale." At 55 per cent volume, it's stronger than whiskey or vodka. Also, all the bottles are placed inside dead animals.

A dead jellyfish unleashed widespread panic when its body deteriorated and morphed into a cloud of disembodied stingers and descended upon a popular swimming beach in New Hampshire, stinging 150 and hospitalizing five. Disgusting local news report ahead!

Do you have a penchant for high-alcohol-content (55%, y'all) beer and taxidermy, and also have $760 to blow? If so, then this new beer product packaged inside dead rodents by Scottish company BrewDog is for you. Video and more, inside.

[South African sailors Paloma and Ralph Warner sure had a... "whale of a time"!!!!!! Get it?? Because, you see, a whale jumped on their boat. (The whale is doing okay.) Click for the aftermath. Capetown Sailing Academy via NYP.]

If you're not familiar with Winston, the most famous/cranky Exotic Shorthair on the Internet and pet to fourfour's Rich Juzwiak, you're missing out (catch up here). In this new video, Winston rides—begrudgingly so, natch—in a bike basket.

When airport authorities in Mexico City noticed a strange bulge in Roberto Cabrera's shirt they decided to investigate. They found he had 18 rare monkeys in his pockets, and he wasn't happy to see them.

Say you're an entrepreneur trying to sell parasailing trips at the beach, but advertisements aren't working. What do you do? Attach a screaming donkey to a parachute and let it drift, because nothing says "beach getaway" like a tortured animal.

[This delightful furry fellow is a Horton Plains slender loris, a species thought to be extinct until it was photographed in Sri Lanka by the Zoological Society of London. Next time let's use red-eye reduction, okay guys? Pic via AP.]

Meet Teddy Almond Turtle. Teddy is a pug. He is also very fat. But perhaps the coolest thing about Teddy is that, when he barks, he actually screams "Batman." I wonder if he thinks the other pug is Robin? Video inside.

The world's only sloth orphanage, located in Costa Rica, seems more like five star hotel than a zoo. As if these adorable creatures weren't lazy enough, all they do is hang around all day smiling and munching on veggies.

Two greyhound-racing Floridians are in trouble after their dogs' urine tested positive for cocaine. (Maybe that explains why they're so skinny?) Officials knew trouble was afoot when the dogs won by a nose. [CBS4, Fark, image via AP]

After being abandoned by her mother, a baby red panda is adopted by a cat to raise alongside her own kittens. Naturally everyone gets along wonderfully because they all have adorable in common.

Gorillas play a tag-like game of punch-and-run, possibly to help hone a sense of boundaries and prepare young apes for grown-up social interaction and conflict. Just like college! (You may want to turn your sound down for the video.) [Guardian]
