Colombia confirmed the first case of an albino ocelot, after carrying out genetic tests on a feline with white fur and red eyes.
The ocelot was found as a kitten, weighing just 440 grams, in the rural zone of Amalfi and was first thought to be a puma jaguarundi.
Medellin’s Conservation Park undertook
genetic testing on the animal, concluding it was actually a leopardus
pardalis, a native species of ocelot that is found all across the
Americas.
oh my god it’s laika day everyone drop what you’re doing… we honour a little dog who was sent up into space 65 years ago today. she was found as a three year old stray mongrel wandering the streets of moscow. her ability to endure hardy conditions got her chosen as the candidate for a journey she was never meant to survive. she passed away seven hours after liftoff. I hope she died dreaming of chasing rabbits up in the stars I love u laika forever and ever
Never forget, she was loved
She was not killed as an act of cruelty, or simply neglected. People cared about her, and the many space dogs who survived proves it
She was loved
