This is just so insanely cute we don't know what to do.

We don't want to overreact but c'mon!!

Baby animals are impossibly cute, or to use the technical term, impossicute.

When the baby animal is an exotic, rare or wild animal, things are usually even CUTER!

So when we found out there was a video online of a baby Rhino taking his first steps?? We nearly lost our shiz!!

So prepare to "awwww" your face off!

Check out the video (above) of a cute baby Rhino, born one week ago at an Australian zoo, taking his first steps!!!

Go, cutie, go!!

Today's Fan Pets of the Day are…

Stella and Sunny!!

TeddyHilton.com reader Mia sent us pics of her cuties all the way from Australia and said:

"These are our gorgeous Maltese x poodle (Moodle) pups all the way from Canberra, Australia. They are best friends and love spending time running around the garden and play fighting. They are super enthusiastic about life, love attention and adore being cuddled. Their ears perk up at the mention of "chicken", "walks", "car" or a "bath", and I think they'd be great buddies for your gorgeous Teddy! :)"

They're both so friggin' CUTE!!

We love that they're such good buddies so even when no one's home, they've at least got each other!

So so so cute!

A worker at the Bat Conservation & Rescue Queensland deserves a pat on the back!

They took in an injured little bat who was suspected of having been attacked by a cat.

Blossom is a Blossom Bat! She has a really long tongue used to get nectar out of flowers and is super cute.

When she was brought into the shelter, she was fed a nectar and milk formula.

She gradually gained weight and even began to practice flying at night.

Blossom Bats are actually threatened because of the loss of their natural habitat due to deforestation and real estate.

So little Blossom was eventually released back into the wild and now is living the free life of a wild bat!

Such a little cutie! Glad the Bat Conservation was able to save her life!

This is just absolutely HORRIBLE!!

When we take live animals, and keep them in cramped, stressful situations to be used as food, we have a responsibility.

That responsibly is to make sure their lives are ended as humanely as possibly.

At a slaughterhouse near Sydney, Australia there are workers who enjoy to torture turkeys before they're stunned and killed.

The birds are shackled by their feet to a conveyor that takes them to be stunned before they're killed.

The whole point of stunning them is so their death is as humane as possible.

But the workers kick, punch and slam around the birds before they're stunned!!

It's so incredibly horrible! Thank goodness there were security cameras that secretly caught everything!

The footage has been taken to the cops for investigation so hopefully these monsters will pay!

Check out the video (above) to learn all about the horrible abuse, but BEWARE it is violently GRAPHIC!

OMG!! There is nothing cuter than small versions of big things.

Australia Zoo just announced the birth of their second Southern White Rhinoceros calf, a cute lil baybay gurrrl.

We say lil just cause she's tiny for a rhino. She actually weighs about 100 pounds!!

Because of poaching for their horns, White Rhinos are listed as Near Threatened.

So every time a new Rhino is born into the world, it's an event to celebrate!

The lil baby and her mama are spending time bonding off display.

A zookeeper said:

"We're really happy with her progress. She is feeding and is quite active – she was walking within hours of the birth."

That's great! We're so glad she's healthy!

Congrats, mama Rhino!

In Australia, Trevor Maltby had to go on a six-day business trip.

So he parked his car at Cairns International Airport and went on his way.

When he got back, ready to drive home, he found a dove perched on his rear windshield.

After trying to shoo it away, it wouldn't budge, and he realized it had laid eggs in a nest it had built!!

There's something CUTEz walking around the merry old land of Oz!

Australia's Mogo Zoo has welcomed another baby Rothschild giraffe to the fold. Mama Shani went into labor on the morning of January 24 and visitors got to watch the circle of life for 1.5 hours while the female calf was born.

This is Shani's third babe and she's proven to be a great mom, and the newborn is bonding well with her.

Except when she's had enough of mama's kissies! Too CUTEz!
