Sea otters are known for their clever use of tools, and they often carry around rocks for several practical reasons. One of the main uses is for breaking open hard-shelled prey like clams, mussels, and sea urchins. They'll use the rock as a tool while floating on their backs, smashing the shells against it to access the soft meat inside. Additionally, sea otters have a loose patch of skin under their forearms that serves as a sort of pocket. In these pockets, they can store their favorite rocks as well as food collected during foraging dives. This adaptation allows them to crack open their prey at the surface, making them one of the few mammal species known to use tools. #seaotters #animals #cute #rocks

At around 7 a.m. on March 1st in Fangchenggang, Guangxi, a driver failed to check for oncoming traffic and abruptly switched lanes to the right. This sudden lane change caused a collision with another vehicle, which spun out of control, flipped over, and crashed through a construction site barrier. Construction workers quickly moved to avoid the incoming vehicle, but one worker trapped in a round pit had no escape route. The car narrowly missed him as he pressed against the pit wall. The driver who caused the accident, the other driver, and the trapped worker all sustained minor injuries. Both vehicles and the construction site were significantly damaged. Authorities determined that the driver who changed lanes was fully responsible for the incident and required him to pay for the damages and medical expenses involved. #accident #carcrash #lucky

Wildlands Wildlife Refuge, @wildrehab, is currently rehabilitating a rare and endangered bobcat with the aim of releasing her back into the wild. The 13-pound yearling female was brought in by the New Jersey Fish & Wildlife Endangered Species Program to assess potential injuries. Although she has no visible injuries, the refuge is closely monitoring her for any internal issues and is administering deworming treatment. She will be returned to her natural habitat as soon as she is deemed ready. #bobcat #adorable #animals #newjersey

President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron have a history of awkward handshakes... #trump #france #donaldtrump #macron #presidents #handshake #frenchnews

In a recent video from @squirrel_boxes, Emma the squirrel captured the internet's attention with her dramatic reaction to a thunderclap. Viewers were charmed by what appeared to be Emma clutching her heart in fright. However, experts and other social media users suggest that this behavior might actually be a reflexive nervous response typical in rodents. When startled, excited, or disturbed, a squirrel's front paws can involuntarily tighten due to the constriction of nerves connected to the brainstem. This involuntary reaction was evident as Emma sharply lifted her head, pulling her left arm tightly against her chest. #squirrel #adorable #thunder #animals #cute
