Motion-triggered digital camera traps have given scientists a brand new way to study wild animals. And this method gets up close and personal!!
Managed by Conservation International, the network has deployed camera traps across 16 sites in Asia, Africa and Latin America, at each site, the traps collect up to 60,000 images every year - which may help scientists collect data that would have otherwise taken years to organize.
(Above) is only one of the many wild animals' portraits that have been taken, and we hope to see much MORE of these pictures.
We can't stop until we get enough!!!
See more animals… AFTER THE JUMP!!!

So purdy!!
This super rare — possibly one of a kind — footage was taken by graduate student, Laila Bahaa-el-din (yeah, we know but let's move past it), in Gabon.
The African golden cat is one of the least known and "most elusive" animals in the world. Excluding the animals still undiscovered by humans - those are the trickiest!
The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, says the African Golden Cat is:
"listed as Near Threatened as it seems reasonable to believe that the species could have declined on the order of 20% over the course of the last 15 years across its range, due mainly to the impact of habitat loss, hunting and loss of prey base."
Well if the cute golden kitty needs a place to stay it's welcome at our place anytime! #wewantone!!

AW!!
This poor little puppy was hit by a train in Poland. This unlucky dog's life was changed thanks to the kindness of a local animal shelter and vet.
Check out this raw footage of the 4-month-old race around on his new set of wheels!! He looks SO happy!

AWWW!
So many beached whale stories have tragic endings - this is SO GREAT to see!
We're pleased to show you guyz this amazing footage of rescuers on Australia's Gold Coast returning a baby humpback whale to the sea after it was found stranded on a beach in the early hours of Monday.
The animal is so big, she's incredibly just two weeks old!

Sadness!
If you think animals don't have deep emotions just watch this bitter-sweet video of horse trying to will another horse back to life. Your. Mind. Will. Change.
This incredible footage taken near Westcliff Colorado shows a two-year-old horse named Skids trying to keep its 26-year-old named Hank alive (70-something in human years) pasture mate alive.
Skids tries desperately to get his fallen friend back on his feet by nuzzling, nipping kicking, and even getting under him.
Sadly Hank never gets back up. But is final moments of love brotherly love will live on.
RIP HANK!

OMG! Talk about bullies!
PETA has a very serious message for our Perezcious readers - Ringling Brothers beat and abuse their animals.
If you think this is an exaggeration, check out the video above and see footage from a veteran trainer that shows the horrible mistreatment of baby elephants!
Please, please, do not support this circus and its cruel practices!!!
