Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Cutest Call To Action Ever of the Day: On October 5, the container ship MV Rena ran aground on Astrolabe Reef, resulting in an oil spill that is already being regarded as the worst environmental disaster in New Zealand’s history.
Clean up efforts are underway, but the danger to local wildlife remains high. A raft of Little Blue Penguins has already been negatively impacted by the spill.
The Kiwi yarn store Skeinz has put out a call for penguin sweaters — an adorable-sounding but very necessary accessory that helps keep the birds from preening their feathers and ingesting the oil.
Skeinz has posted knitting instructions for anyone willing to lend a hand.
EVERYONE PUT DOWN WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GET STARTED ON THESE GODDAMN ADORABLE AND USEFUL PENGUIN SWEATERS OH MY GOD THE WORLD NEEDS IT I NEED IT WE NEEEEEEED ITTTTTT!!!
A penguin going nuts with joy because it’s snowing and it’s New Years and Auld Lang Syne is playing, and goddammit, life is the fucking jam right now.
(Thanks to Jessica W. and Veronica O. for the video!)
Merry Christmas eve from me and a ton of penguins dressed as elves. Korea, you so weird.
Penguins chasing a butterfly. I mean, if you don’t think this is fucking sweet and adorable, throw your heart in a trashcan because it’s USELESS.
(thanks @actionstern!)
I’ve been laughing at this all morning. This seal is the JAM! Come over to my house for some beers, high fives and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, seal. You’re rad.
