    In 3 decades, we’ve met countless turtles and tortoises. So many that there’s no way to even guess at a number. Every once in a while an extra special one comes along but words can’t describe just how personable, charismatic and intelligent this turtle is. Meet “Otis”, the dog-like box turtle.

  • This Parrot is Too Heavy To Fly

    The kākāpō parrot is perhaps one of the more stranger birds on planet Earth. This New Zealand native is too heavy to fly, has the mating call of a frog and only reproduces when a specific fruit is growing on a certain tree.

  • How Do Female Snakes Pick a Mate?

    Having released a scent that attracts males, this female snake is now outnumbered a hundred to one by potential mates. How will she separate the men from the boys?
