On mainland Australia, Devil Ark is the largest conservation breeding program for the Tasmanian Devil.

We just learned something new about the tasmanian devil… they're SUPER cute as babies!

Just look at the pic (above) of a little Tasmanian Devil joey drinking from a bottle!!

Sooper adorbz!

Every little Devil is a gift because there's a highly contagious disease called Devil facial tumor disease (DFTD).

DFTD could lead to the extinction of of the Tasmanian Devil in the next 20 years!

So these little guys are just that much more precious!

There are over 120 Devils at the Ark and they hope to have 360 by 2016!

Good luck with the breeding! Let's keep these cuties around for future generations to "AWW" at!

At the Perth Zoo in Australia, thirteen baby Western Swamp Tortoises were born!!

The zoo has been working since 1989 to help conserve these tortoises because they're critically endangered.

They're rebuilding their wild population through their captive breeding/reintroduction program.

Since the program started all those years ago, over 800 tortoises have been born there and 600 of those have been successfully reintroduced into the wild!!

That's ahmayzing!

When these little guys are born they're so crazy small it's ridiculous!

We really realllllly want one! These little guys are painfully cute and we think they'd be perfect just crawling around our hands, all small and cute and tortoisey.

Too adorbz!!

Justice will be served to a family of dog breeders for the cruel conditions they provided to over 200 dogs.

Rhonda and Dave Auton, along with their 29 year old son, Adam, each face 241 counts of animal cruelty after their Maplewood, OH business was raided last week.

Cats and dogs and rabbits, oh my! We LUHV El Lay!

The City of Angels will become the largest city in the States to ban the sale of particular species bred by breeders at commercial stores.

Stores will no longer be able to sell cats, dogs, or rabbits unless they come from rescues and shelters.

Breeding pit bulls is not a very smart idea, especially when they are the most common dog given up to shelters and also the most commonly euthanized.

So why does Chris Brown want to sell his pit bulls for 1,000 bucks?

We don't really know.

Luckily, Dr. Patrick has some advice for pit bull owners as well as information about this misunderstood breed.

Check out the video (above) about to learn more about adopting pit bulls from Dr. P!
