Introducing the Radical Rodents, the world's first four-piece surfing mice club. Catch them riding tubes, pulling slick switches as well as falling in.
The four consist of Bunsen, Harry, Curly and Chopsticks, but Bunsen stands out as by far the smoothest surfing mouse I've ever seen.

Chipmunk movie out 21st Dec! You can become a chipmunk at this site!!
Here are some facts:
Chipmunks are small members of the squirrel family.
Of the 25 species of chipmunks, all but one, Asias Tamias sibiricus, is found in North America. Ranging from Canada to Mexico
They are generally seen of environments from alpine forests to shrubby deserts.
Some dig burrows to live in, complete with tunnels and chambers, while others make their homes in nests, bushes, or logs.
They range in size from the least chipmunk, which, at 7.2 to 8.5 inches (18.5 to 21.6 centimeters) and 1.1 to 1.8 ounces (32 to 50 grams), Eastern chipmunk, which grows up to 11 inches (28 centimeters) and weighs as much as 4.4 ounces (125 grams).
They feed on insects, nuts, berries, seeds, fruit, and grain which they stuff into their generous cheek pouches and carry to their burrow or nest to store.
Chipmunks hibernate, but instead of storing fat, they periodically dip into their cache of nuts and seeds throughout the winter.
Originally the name was "chit-monk." That's what the Al-gon-quin Indians of Eastern North America called them, but the white folks miss-pronounced it.
Chipmunks are members of the order rodentia or rodents, which is the largest order with 1,500 living species.. They are related to squirrels and ground squirrels.
Males live about five years; females about nine.

Biologists are working on getting rid of the rats on Rat Island in Alaska. The pesky rodents first arrived on the Aleutian island via a shipwreck in 1780 and have since taken over, making the island essentially uninhabitable to native birds and other wild life. Apparently rats don't even eat the whole bird, and the photo is proof - they eat the brains and eyeballs, and leave dead birds lying all over the place.
