Baby Wallaby Gets a Foster Mom With Makeshift Pouch!
Look at this cute lil face, but does that seem to be a wallaby mama? (Answer — no.) See more of the baby's unlikely parent, provisional pouch, and daytime activities — like typing! — in this slideshow.
That's a Big Fishie Tank!
If you wanted to visit the world's largest fish tank, you'd have to go to Okinawa, Japan, home of the "Kuroshio Sea," otherwise known as the Churaumi Aquarium. Their fish tank is so humongous, it holds four whale sharks – the biggest fish alive!
Not only is the local sea life that's housed in the tank beautiful to look at, but the observation window at the Churaumi is a marvel on its own.
Hello, I'm Mr. Yosuke Nakamura . . . Now Take Me Home!
Forget "ringing" like a cell phone — this bird has even more amazing things come out of his mouth. When the African grey parrot was found and rescued two weeks ago in Nagareyama, Japan, the officials promptly brought him into the police station and were about to start the interrogation process. Turns out this bird was just not talking .
Globetrotters: Tokyo's Parading Irish Setters
While we played guess that breed with another Irish pup, there are still several other breeds deserving a shout out yesterday. From the Glen of Imaal Terriers to the Irish Water Spaniels, among the pretty pups coming from this country are my mom's fave – the lovely Irish Setters.
And clearly she's not the only one.
Wow, Your Dog Has a Great Smile!
I always know where North is in the apartment by the squeaking of his favorite toys. Although they don't provide much entertainment for me, he seems to be perfectly content to munch on them all day. So, when I saw these crazy doggie toys on InventorSpot, with the giggle-inducing smiles on the front, I knew I had to have them.
The Scoop: Hayden Protests Dolphin Hunting in Japan
Hayden Panettiere attempted some real-life heroism on Tuesday when she, and other animal activists, paddled out into the open sea on surfboards to try to rescue dolphins from an annual dolphin slaughter in Taiji, Japan. The mission was unsuccessful, however, as she and the others were threatened and forced to turn back... and the fishermen continued.
Pet Rescue Jacket: Spoiled Sweet or Spoiled Rotten?
Don't be fooled – this pup isn't planning a costume of caught-in-a-torrential-downpour for Halloween this year. He's actually sporting a new, top-of-the-line pet rescue jacket (along with attached emergency kit and food pockets) at this week's Security and Safety Trade Expo in Tokyo. As cute as he looks in this get-up, the first thing that came to mind was the amount of time and patience it would take (in an emergency no less) to get this onto my squirmy guy.

Flashback to 2005: Where Is the Honda Dog Car?
Back in 2005, Honda featured a minivan that was made for you and your best friends — furry and non-furry alike. With passenger seating for up to six people, you'd think there would be plenty of room for Fido to ride along without any problems. But Honda thought that having an abundance of room wasn't enough.

Cute Cow With Heart Marking Shows Up on SNL
Tracy Morgan hosted this weekend's Saturday Night Live and brought back his hilarious Brian Fellows Safari Planet sketch, which means the late night show also had some friendly four-legged guests. I was thrilled to see a darling calf, which they called Maggie that had a prominent white heart between her eyes. She looks a lot like Japan-born Ha-chan, the Friesian calf known for his heart-shaped head marking, but Maggie's heart was a bit smaller.
