Dog doo is no match for Don Draper Jon Hamm!

One of the HAWTEST men on television was spotted getting down and dirty picking up his dog's dirty downs.

We feel so honored to be able to peek into our FAVE Mad Men star's life (sorry, Pete Campbell!) as he walks his german shepherd Cora.

We'd do anything to rub either of their bellies!

Check out more wonderful pictures (below) !!!

Well this doesn't make much sense! Terrorism? REALLY?

That is, unless the lawmakers are super into abusing animals. Or being paid off. Those are the only ways we could EVER see this happening — because the collection of wide-reaching laws will effectively make it impossible to collect evidence of animal abuse from here on out!

We're talking about cutting off whistleblowers with good hearts or even videographers working with the Humane Society when their evidence usually ends with prosecutions, fines, and even reform among producers! Which is a GREAT thing! Those poor animals!

With the new bills, deemed "Ag-Gag," the people who collect the evidence must turn it into authorities as soon as it's collected, instead of being able to accumulate any detailed or significant body of evidence. Which normally would lead to better results against the offenders!

A picture of a giant wolf killed in Michigan has really got some people talking.

The wolf was struck by a car and killed in an accident on a highway.

A man took a picture of himself holding the dead wolf, which weighed an incredible 100-pounds and was almost as tall as him!!

Even though the death was an accident, it's sparked a debate in Michigan regarding the hunting of wolves. A new law may go into effect

Several animal rights groups have written the London 2012 organizers to try and persuade the director of the opening ceremony, Danny Boyle, to not use live animals.

The opening ceremony planned to use 100 farm animals in the show, but animal groups warn them they may face severe consequences.

Under the 2006 Animal Welfare Act, it is illegal to intentionally cause undue fear and distress to animals.

There are six groups in total agreement that the experience of being in the show would be "highly stressful and probably terrifying experience for them."

The groups are Animal Aid, Animal Defenders International, Captive Animals Protection Society, Compassion in World Farming, Peta and Viva.

They want Boyle to use puppets and animatronics.

The lead organizers of the Olympics said that they will be working closely with the Royal Society for the Protection of Animals to make sure the animals are "better looked after than the volunteers."

We bet it's too late at this point to just scrap the whole animal part.

Let's hope the show really conforms to all the animal laws or else Danny Boyle might have a whole lotta angry people to deal with.

PETA hopes that
