This New Zealand Pigeon Gets Drunk on Fermented Fruit and Falls Out of Trees - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Meet the kererū, also known as the New Zealand pigeon or wood pigeon. This big, unmistakable bird won New Zealand’s Bird of the Year competition in 2018, and it has also earned a much stranger reputation. At certain times of year, kererū gorge themselves on ripe fruit. In warm conditions, that fruit can ferment in the bird’s crop and produce alcohol, leaving some kererū temporarily intoxicated. The result can be poor coordination, clumsy flight, and, occasionally, birds falling from trees. In th
Watch a Massive Grizzly Bear Turn a Playground Slide Into Its Personal Toy - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Apparently, playground equipment is not just for kids.

Aly is an award-winning underwater wildlife photographer who documents marine life around the world

Read excerpt
How do you move six Giraffes? Very carefully! This footage comes from the 2016 PBS Nature documentary Giraffes: Africa’s Gentle Giants. It follows a wildlife team transporting six giraffes in a specially built, open-topped vehicle. The wild animals had been captured under veterinary supervision and held briefly in an enclosure called a boma before the trip. Rangers covered the truck with leafy branches, giving the giraffes something to browse on and a welcome distraction during the drive. The cr
