Malayan tiger cubs. Julie Larsen Maher, Wildlife Conservation Society What's cuter than a tiger cub? Half a dozen tiger cubs! Six tiger cubs made their public debut at the Wildlife Conservation Society's Bronx Zoo in New York this week, according to to the WCS. The cubs come from two litters and two different subspecies of tiger. Three are Amur tigers and three are Malayan tigers. Their arrival has zoo staff cheering. This is the first litter of Amur tigers born at the Bronx Zoo in more than 13 years. And it's the first time that Malayan tigers have ever been exhibited in the Bronx. The cubs can be seen at the zoo's Tiger Mountain exhibit, in adjacent exhibits that separate the ...

Yukari*, flickr Is there anything more adorable than a picture of unlikely animals buddying up? Sure there is: Video of it! While we at Paw Nation are certainly experts in the field of cute, our friends at "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" are pretty well-educated on the adorable too.

In Colorado Springs, three black bear cubs (three little bears!) found themselves in a sticky situation when they became trapped inside a dumpster, reports KDRO News Channel 13. Locals tried to help but mama bear kept them at bay. Fortunately, the Division of Wildlife came to the rescue. The simple solution? Officers slid a ladder into the container and the cubs crawled out own their own, probably on the lookout for some porridge. (Wishful thinking?) Share ...

Timmy and Tanya's love is the classic story of what happens when a shy boy tortoise meets fake, plastic girl tortoise. At the Tortoise Garden sanctuary in St. Austell, Cornwall, U.K., Timmy was "regularly bullied" by the other boys in the garden, leaving him shy and lonely. Even after he was introduced to other tortoises, they simply disliked him, even starting fights with the guy! But when the sanctuary owner Joy Bloors placed plastic Tanya inside the pen, it was love at first sight. Timmy immediately began to "nuzzle and kiss" her, and continues to play with her every day. In other words, true love exists, even among real and fake tortoises. Never give up hope! Share ...

You might already be aware that, here at Paw Nation, we have a bit of a soft spot for baby sloths. Well, okay, we tend to have a soft spot for baby animals of all kinds, but sloths, with their long, goofy front legs and inquisitive little faces are special. The folks at Sloth Sanctuary in Costa Rica think so, too -- especially Claire Trimer, the Sanctuary's baby sloth wrangler (and yes, that's what we want to be when we grow up, too!). The Sanctuary houses around 135 sloths, all there for various reasons, but all being cared for and loved just the same. If watching the video below inspires you to learn more about Sloth Sanctuary or the furry darlings that live there, check out Sloth ...

When a butterfly lands, one almost always stops and takes a moment to take in one of the world's most glorious sights, an insect so colorfully splendid and fragile that we all know must not be touched. (C'mon, you know the rules). From the vivid, eye-catching colors of its wings to the calm, slow flapping movement it makes while perched on a shoulder, leaf, or blade of grass, these creatures seem to come from a place of make-believe, where the challenge of seeing so much beauty in one thing is nothing less than remarkable. But add a kangaroo named Skippy into the mix, and you've got yourself a piece of delicious YouTube cake! And, boy oh boy, do we want a slice. CUTE! Share ...
