If you like whales or the sound of a panicking teenage girl, this is definitely the video for you. Just be careful where you watch it. While it is obviously extremely SFW (it's just a father and daughter in a canoe looking at a whale), the heavy breathing and moans do sound a little suspicious if nobody can see the actual video...

Every now and then, the internet graces us with video that's intensely fascinating and unspeakably vile at the same time. You know what we're talking about -- the kind of video that's guaranteed (better or worse) to stay with you for years to come. This is one of those. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Everyone knows that the day after Thanksgiving -- aka Black Friday -- is the busiest day of the year for shopping. But apparently three wild deer got a bit confused as to the date and showed up at Kohl's department store four days early.

According to a new study, apes suffer from midlife crises, which may provide insight into why humans often have a blue period in their late 40s.

This is a baby clouded leopard. Clouded leopards are generally found in China, and sadly their populations are decreasing. Hence, zoos are trying to preserve the species. They also like to give their adorable babies pumpkins to chew on...

After three years on the run, Florida's "Mystery Monkey of Tampa Bay," a 40-pound wild rhesus macaque, has finally been captured. Hey, what's the big deal with a rogue monkey? After all, Florida is already home to people who call 911 because of bologna sandwiches and giant eyeballs on the beach.

In this video, several adorable kitties get a lesson in basic physics when they become intensely fascinated with a kinetic motion desk toy. We hope you're paying attention, kitties. There will be a test later.

There's not a whole lot to do when you live in the country. It was really only a matter of time before somebody came up with this idea, and then only a short amount of time after that for somebody to film it and put it on YouTube.

Everyone loves a good snow day, but that's nothing compared to a vicious onslaught of man-eating crocodiles.

Florida, the state that brought us alligator wrestling, has a new aquatic activity you can participate in with a feared predator. Wild Things, a private zoo in Dade City, is now allowing its visitors 30 minutes in the pool with a tiger cub for $200.

Cats rather famously do not like water. Except when they do like water, because then, apparently, they love it. Witness this kitty in the shower, who seems to be enthralled with the streams of water coming out of it and not to mind getting soaked...

If you get motion sick, you're probably looking for any form of relief. And a source of it is coming from an unlikely place: NASA.

If you're going to cook and eat a squirrel, for some inexplicable reason, we can stake with confidence that a blowtorch is not the way to go about doing it.

"Mother nature is a MAD scientist," said Kramer of Seinfeld fame. And it looks like we may be seeing some of her strange alchemy on an English farm, where there appears to be a sheep with an upside-down head.

Wild-eyed carnivores recently gathered in Peru to take part in a controversial feline-feasting frenzy in honor of one of their ancestors. Every September, people gather in the streets of La Quebrada to pay homage to Santa Efgenia with a full day of music, dancing and, well, cat meat, for a ceremony appropriately referred to as the Gastronomic Festival of the Cat.

Just when we finally thought that dubstep was mercifully on its way out, a new video comes along that breathes life back into the dance genre. And who do we owe for that? None other than cats, the internet's unofficial mascot. We'll get you for this, cats.
