No, this wasn't a one-in-a-billion car crash where four llamas happened to each be driving separate cars or something.

Near Punta Gorda, Florida, a pickup truck was carrying a trailer with four llamas in it.

The truck crashed into a bridge and the trailer tipped over with the poor llamas inside!

In the aftermath of the Oklahoma tornado, not only are people in need of help… many animals need aid!

Thankfully, the good people at Banfield Pet Hospitals are providing access to their Oklahoma locations for free!

That means that there are free physical examinations for pets affected by the tornado.

This is so ahmayzing!!

There are so many things for people to worry about if they were directly affected by the storm, so at least this one thing can be taken off their minds.

Because when a pet is injured, everything else needs to take a backseat. Just look at how happy this woman was to have found her dog! He's the center of her universe!

So not having to worry about how to pay for veterinary care is going to be a big relief.

The offer is good through June 4th so if you have an animal who was affected by the recent devastating tornado, head over to a Banfield Hospital near you!

Check out the list of participating locations AFTER THE JUMP.

No, we're not talking about little baby Lincoln! We're talking about Kristen Bell's OTHER baby!

The Veronica Mars actress took her tiny pooch Shakey on a trip to the vet's office in Hollywood!

Based on the fact that Kristen is all smiles, we're guessing everything is A-OK with her pup and hopefully they were just visiting for a routine check-up!

Of course that didn't stop her from giving him a little bit of special treatment and carrying him all the way back to the car! What a good mommy!

We're glad to see Kristen is taking good care of ALL of her babies and she hasn't forgotten about little Shakey!

Although pets don't often show it - a lot of pets can and do feel pain.

Which was definitely the case for veterinarian Dr. Doug Kramer after his precious pet dog was diagnosed with terminal cancer.

Wanting to make sure the dog lived the rest of its life happy - Kramer decided to give the dog medical marijuana which is legal in the state of California.

And although people may frown upon using medical marijuana on a pet dog, PETA actually is for using marijuana upon one's own pets as long as it for medicinal purposes.

This just seems like blatant animal cruelty!!

But actually, it's more complicated than that.

Some pet owners give their pets medical marijuana, and not in a hold them down and blow smoke in their face like an evil high school stoner way.

Their animals have bad arthritis or cancer and they give them medicated snacks to help alleviate the problems.

There is even a vet (in California of course) that believes it can be okay to get a pet high!

This is amazing, ridiculous, scary, and upsetting all rolled up into one hair ball!

A cat named Ginger broke free of its cage at the vet's office and made a ridiculously long journey back home!

The 4-year-old traveled five freakin' miles, and ten whole days to make it back home. Often it had to make its way through twisting roads filled to its asphalt neck with cars & trucks.

It's a miracle it survived.

Here's what the owner said:

This is absurdzies!

A man went to buy two toy poodles, only to have a vet tell him they were actually FERRETS that had been put on steroids to get to the size of the desired dogs! Holy shizz!

There are so many things swimming through our minds right now: Those poor ferrets! Who the hell would do that to them??
