Tiger and Dog Are Best Friends
Panjo the Tiger was adopted by the Fernandez family when he was just a cub. Without a mother to look after him, the family's Jack Russell dogs took over parenting duties - now Tiger and Dog are best friends!
Brutus, the pet grizzly bear
Brutus, an 800 pounds grizzly bear, is Casey Anderson's best friend. Casey, a naturalist, and Brutus are inseparable from the day Brutus was a 2 weeks old cub. Casey saved the bear from an overpopulated wildlife park, and raised him with lot of attention, love and respect. Brutus is living in a sanctuary that Casey built so he can freely live a life which a grizzly bear is supposed to live. Being around Brutus is not dangerous because he is comfortable around people, but Casey is still not letting anybody have physical contact with Brutus but himself. He is not afraid that the bear will ever attack him because he knows and predicts his every movement.

Siku the Baby Polar Bear
Last seen on ZooBorns at age 32 days, Siku, which means “Sea ice” in Greenlandic language, is proving to be quite a star, having had another photo session at the ripe old age of 52 days. Siku lives at the Scandinavian Wildlife Park of Djursland.

Smiling Seal Pup

THIS Harp Seal pup is a natural in front of the camera and is melting hearts with its adorable grin.
Wildlife photographer, Keren Su, crawled across the ice on his stomach to snap this beaming face.

Mr Su, 60, travelled by helicopter to the remote Iles de la Madeleine in East Canada to spend time with the seals.
"I was only allowed a limited time with the seals and in order to get the pictures I wanted I had to crawl on the ice so the pups wouldn't be afraid of a huge stranger," he said.

"After they had gotten used to my smell I could get closer and closer until my camera was right in front of them.
"When they became relaxed they would behave in the cutest ways imaginable."
Harp Seal pups only stay white for a short window of 10 days.
Mr Su has dedicated years to taking the ideal picture and his most recent work also includes snapping Emperor penguins in its natural habitat of Antarctica.
