What could be sillier than a donkey/zebra hybrid? Its name! Zedonk, when the mother is a donkey, or donkra, when the mother is a zebra. Both name are equally silly. How cute is that? Look at this little zeedonk’s legs. They make me gush!
That's right, I'm a goofy zedonk!

Blue Bear and I were playing Jeopardy yesterday on the Nintendo (that’s right, the one from the 1980s). It was a lot of fun. We happened to have a question about orioles, so we decided to check them out online. These are truly beautiful birds with striking plumage. Neither of us have managed to stumble upon one of these birds in person, but hopefully we will someday. In the meanwhile, we will be scoping out pretty pictures like this one.

Hey guys. I know we had a post already with an animal hanging out with a plush pal, but I just had to post this picture I found of a goofy little bunny being incredibly fuzzy while hanging out with a penguin toy. Not only is the bunny cute, but the toy is cute too! One thing I wonder is whether or not they would get along, food-wise… Penguins and bunnies don’t exactly eat the same kind of food!
So that'll be a carrot for the bunny and tuna for the penguin!

I was actually looking for something different altogether – a picture of a wolverine, actually – when I stumbled upon these little buddies. I couldn’t help myself and I knew I had to post this picture on ACAD. So what do you guys think? Aren’t these little goats absolutely adorable? And how about the cute little doggy in the background? I bet they’re all great friends.
Maybe the doggy is a little baaaaashful

You may be wondering why we chose to post a bear today. Actually, you probably aren’t wondering why since bears are absolutely adorable, (especially this little cub here), and we’re a site that posts cute animal pictures. Well, whether you’re wondering why or not, the reason is that today is Blue Bear’s birthday! Happy birthday to a great friend and inspiring person!

We wish everyone (including our mothers) a very Happy Mother’s Day! This post wraps up our mother’s day special for 2012 here at ACAD, but don’t worry: we often post pictures of animal mothers (and fathers) with their babies anyway, which is why we have a whole category dedicated to it.
We absolutely love this picture. We love how the mother lion is kissing/grooming her young one, and he/she is thoroughly enjoying it!
Again, we wish everyone a Happy Mother’s Day!
Lion Kisses!

Look at the size of that tongue! You can tell just how much affection and love this proud mother has for her puppy. This picture is so cute, it makes me want to give both doggies a treat!
Moooooooooooommmmmmmmm, you're embarrassing me!

As soon as we saw this picture, we were so moved. There is just so much affection displayed in this image by these two giraffes. Look how the mother loves her baby and the baby loves its mommy! It makes us want to hug our mothers too.
Awwww

Did you guys know that Koalas are endangered? I had an idea, but I didn’t know to what extent until I read an article in this month’s National Geographic magazine. Apparently there are very few Koalas left due to various factors including them being injured by cars in populated areas, and a loss of habitat due to humans cutting down eucalyptus trees.
All of this is very sad, but luckily there are many people in Australia that have taken action to protect the Koala population by creating rescues where they save Koalas and help nurse injured ones back to health. Here’s a photograph of a woman who is helping to save Koalas by adopting them. Wouldn’t you love to be in her place? Apparently it’s a lot of work, but it also must be an incredibly rewarding thing to do, and would be filled with adorable moments like these.
Mommy, can we go to the park and play on the jungle gym?

Why would I be posting a picture of an animal with a father, as opposed to a mother, in honour of Mother’s Day? Mainly because I didn’t learn until just now that the three-horned chameleon only has three horns when it is a male (like the one in the picture), but also because it was too cute to resist! Still, fathers shouldn’t be forgotten on Mother’s day either, so this post will be a reminder to give your dad some hugs and kisses even though it may be your mom’s special day.
This baby Jackson’s chameleon, also known as the three-horned chameleon, was one of 22 successfully bred for the first time in the Taronga Zoo. Aren’t chameleons awesome? I love their tails. An interesting fact to note is that most chameleons lay eggs, but the Jackson’s chameleon actually gives birth to live young, according to Wikipedia’s Jackson’s Chameleon article.
Someone has quite a bit of growing up to do!
