Can you name that creature? (Hint: It's not a hamster.) Even though Dennis is a captive-bred mammal, learn all about The Great Nut Hunt to bring his other endangered pals out of hiding in this slideshow.

We've seen penguins wearing a little something extra both for holidays and cold weather protection, but Ralph here wears this ensemble for an entirely different reason. Check out the crew at Marwell Wildlife in Hampshire, England and read all about it!

Even though the lil guy (or girl?) is just a half-ounce and one-and-a-half-inches long, it'll eventually grow to be closer to seven inches and two pounds. This Chinese box turtle was born at the Bristol Zoo on August 12, and can live to be over 50 years old!
As happy as I am to see this newborn, unfortunately these turtles are endangered in the wild because they've been hunted for their meat or for medicinal purposes for too many years – good thing this one's safe!

This hair color is not the only recent change in Lily Allen's life – she picked up a new dog yesterday! Meet Honey, the rescued pooch from London's Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. The singer shared her thoughts on the pup in a blog post last week:
Anyways in other news, I'm getting a dog from Battersea dogs home, I found her on the weekend, and after a visit from a rehoming officer hopefully, I'll have her by next week.

Forget toting a dog with a hog, let her ride right inside a special compartment like lil Mini, the canine cruiser! I especially love that she's securely inside with her very own pair of Doggles – her eyes stay safe as she enjoys the scenery of southern England. What a life!

I was super excited to spot these furballs in the arms of Kim Cattrall at the opening of the annual Summer Sale at Harrods yesterday because, ummm, when am I not excited for puppies?! At first, I was a bit baffled why these cutie doxie models were involved at all but my eagle eyes discovered that she's actually seen here in the pet department – check out those red toy squeaky slippers in the background!
This department store has some of my fave merch for our furry friends – in fact, when I spent all that time in London, I picked up a cute tshirt for my dog that he still wears to this day!

I could never ever imagine giving up my four-legged baby and I know that all of you feel the same about your precious pets, which makes this news even more infuriating. I caught a recent UK Daily Mail story about some shocking reasons cats are being dumped into the local animal shelters.
The RSPCA in West London bares all when trying to find forever homes for the unwanted felines, including listing why the now homeless kitties were brought to them.

I've already got a soft spot for penguins as is and, added to my love for baby animals, the twofer just melted my heart. I mean this is the teeniest lil penguin I've seen in a while, weighing just 85 grams (three ounces). The adoro chick hatched on March 24 at Chester Zoo in England.

Yum! Ten-day-old Margaret takes a sweet sip – with a giraffe's version of a milk mustache no less – from Tim Rowlands at England's Chester Zoo. She's actually the first Rothschild's giraffe born there and already she has a BFF in her keeper who named the lovely lass after his mother.
