Though I love most animals, elephants are one of my favorite species, in part because of their intelligence, compassion, and frequent expressions of love to their herds and families. An example is this cautious elephant mother who unfortunately is aware of reasons that it's best to keep her baby beyond trunk's length from strange humans. In this sweet clip, she extends her trunk to gently hold the baby back from a group of tourists approaching them on the road near Malelane in Kruger National Park in South Africa. Via Daily Dot

/Was friends in high school with a guy who got shipped off to a Klan summer camp in the 80s. That was how he found out that being in the Klan was a family tradition he was expected to take part in, and his experience was... not pleasant at all.
