Zoo

If you've ever asked the question about whether or not you can really pet a kangaroo in Missouri, I can answer it for you. The answer is absolutely, but the question of "should you" is another one entirely.

A crowd was gathered at the St. Louis Zoo in Missouri this week to see the polar bear exhibit, but it was a family of squirrels that stole the show as video shows how a squirrel mom attempted to save one of her babies.

I don't know if you've heard the story or seen the crazy video of the scientist getting bitten by an alligator that's been passed around Facebook and news sites over the past few days.  If you haven't, check it out here.  Be warned.  It's not for the faint of heart (or stomach).
