Well, you certainly don’t see this every day… Check out the unique fort-building skills of the veined octopus. Known for unusual behavior like bipedal walking (and its shameless shell theft), this is definitely not your average cephalopod!This cute, shy octopus gathers up shells from the ocean floor so that he can build a safe hiding place from predators — and, you know…curious cameramen. His kleptomaniac tendencies have landed him the nickname, “Kleptopus.” What a little thief!
Octopus dens are usually under a rock or in a crevice, and the animal has even been observed taking up residence inside of an old, discarded bottle on the sea floor. Or stolen shells.
What an awesome creature! The world underwater never ceases to amaze me...

And I shall call you... mini-me?
Move over Grumpy Cat and fellow kitty friends, a new animal favorite is arising on the internet. His name is Bikke and he is an insanely adorable chipmunk who hails from Japan. Everything about this tiny guy, from his chubby cheeks down to his furry little tail, exudes cuteness. People the world over are sure to fall in love with Bikke once they see him do his morning stretches.
The animosity between two of our favorite animals is well-documented through books, cartoons, and pop culture at large. If we’re to trust what we see on TV, we’d believe that cats spend their days plotting against dogs, and that man’s best friend is forever lying in wait for kitty to chase.
