We previously mentioned that Justin Bieber was taking some heat for giving away his pet hamster PAC.

He apparently left a concert and just handed his hamster to a fan and told her to keep it.

She was overjoyed and said she worships the hamster, taking it everywhere with her.

Sadly, PAC has died!!

Oh no! What happened?? His new owner tweeted the following, soon before PAC's unfortunate passing:

They say wisdom comes with age!

Somewhere around 520 million years ago, there was an explosion of life known as the Cambrian Period.

The fossil record from that time has some of our oldest ancestors… and some creatures that don't resemble anything on earth today!

Shep is a 19 year old pooch who is blind, arthritic and he has all sorts of maladies.

Yeah, that's right…he's NINETEEN years old!

And video of Shep and his owner John Unger swimming in Lake Superior has gone viral as many sympathizers around the world see the two bond.

All Unger hopes is that his old friend passes away peacefully.

Sad…very sad.

Check out the video (above) to see some pretty kitties feeding.

Princeton University geoscientists Adam Maloof & Catherine Rose identified fossils of soft-bodied animals from approximately 577 million years ago to 542 million years ago.

Or at least they think the fossils are from animals - that's only their "best guess."

The fossils were found in Australia and the results suggest that primitive sponge-like creatures lived in ocean reefs all those years ago.

The research suggests that the organisms were about the size of a small fingertip and had weirdly shaped bodies with a huge network of internal canals.

Here's what a scientist said:

"We were accustomed to finding rocks with embedded mud chips, and at first this is what we thought we were seeing. But then we noticed these repeated shapes that we were finding everywhere – wishbones, rings, perforated slabs and anvils. We realized we had stumbled upon some sort of organism, and we decided to analyze the fossils. No one was expecting that we would find animals that lived before the ice age, and since animals probably did not evolve twice, we are suddenly confronted with the question of how a relative of these reef-dwelling animals survived the 'snowball Earth.'"

The 'Snowball Earth' is the theory that the entire globe was frozen solid at one point before 650 million years ago.

Images recreated from their finding have led scientists to believe these fossil remains belonged to a spongelike creature. Previously, the oldest known and undisputed fossilized sponges date to around 520 million years old.

History is being made, people.

But are we sure those (above) are fossils? They look like pizza to us - ha!
