Bedbugs Dig the Library, Too!

Nice. Bedbugs can hitch rides on library books, hidden in the spines of hardcovers. That's lovely. Time to send in the bedbug-sniffing dog!

Localized Giantism

This story made the rounds about a year ago. Kaleem was born with hands twice the size of a normal baby, and they have continued to grow. At the age of eight, each hand weighed 30 pounds, and his condition remained undiagnosed and untreated. See the original video on the Mirror website.

The attention given to Kaleem and his undiagnosed condition gained him some much needed exposure, and doctors who saw the story recognized his condition as macrodactyly, otherwise known as localized giantism.

Doctors are working to help the boy and it sounds like a documentary has been done charting his journey. Check out the update on DailyMail.com.

The sheep that saved an elephant...

Elephant calf is orphaned. After rescue, he refuses to eat. As a last ditch effort, the rescuers bring in a sheep as a companion. Things don't go well at first, but soon they are inseparable...

Horse saved from frozen canal

I can't believe that this horse survived. He was in the frozen water for hours, and the water actually froze around him.
