The Newest, Cutest Baby Animals from the World's Zoos & Aquariums

Posted in ,

While they may look like over-sized guinea pigs, hyraxes are actually more closely related to elephants and manatees and in prehistoric times reached the size of a small horse! The LA Zoo welcomed two litters of baby rock hyraxes, one on July 11th and another on July 12th. If you ask me, they look pretty devious…

    I was a volunteer at the San Francisco Zoo for three years. I can vouch for the fact that not only are hyraxes devious, they are nasty-tempered little beasts.

    Plotting and scheming, scheming and plotting – all day long and into the night. Guess someone has to be the bad guys amid all this sweetness and light…

    LoL, I’m surprised these guys haven’t been shown as enemies in cartoons. They do look evil.

    I wonder if they are in league with the meerkats, who are clearly planning on taking over the world…
