Do you know any facts that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside? Here are a few that I'm aware of:

* Cows can form close relationships with one-another and thus, can have a best friend.
*Sea otters will hold hands to avoid drifting.
* Gorillas will sometimes hum as they eat food that they enjoy.
*Dolphins name their young, much like we do.
*There are more public labraries in the US than McDonald's.
*Male penguins will offer females a pebble, if she accepts it, they will become mates.

Vampire bats will feed another member of their colony (through regurgitation) if they're hurt or have been unable to leave the roost to eat. They will also adopt orphaned babies within the colony, rather than letting them die.

In South Africa, a double-leg amputee adopted a baboon named Jack and trained him to help him at his job as a train signalman. Jack became so good at his job they started to pay him twenty cents an hour, and in the nine years he worked there he never made a mistake.

Squirrels plant thousands of trees per year just because they forgot where they put their acorns.

People instinctually smile when they're happy. It's one of the world's few cross-culture phenomenons.

There are 'rabbit show jumping' competitions held in the USA and some European countries. It's similar to horse jumping competitions, but on a scale for rabbits. (Look it up, the pictures are adorable)

Penguins and rats laugh when they're tickled.

When looking at their owner's face, dogs release high levels of dopamine.

Hey, friendly reminder to drink water, stretch, and take a short break if you can. Stay healthy! Also, don't forget about any chores or tasks you might be putting off.
