Crabs don't get to enjoy any produce while they're sidling along under the sea, so when they come up for air and hit the beach they head straight to the nearest surfside fruit shack and chow down.

But the spoiled little crab in this video gets to eat bugs, potato chips and fruit whenever he wants, and he enjoys spending the afternoon leisurely shoveling banana into his maw.

And in case you were wondering what other types of fruit this little crab enjoys here's another video from another day, when that cute little pet crab got his claws on a slice of watermelon.

There's something so charming about seeing kids discover their Easter baskets and hunt for Easter eggs, but you know what's better than that? Seeing lions, monkeys and meerkats doing the same though is even better. The Werribee Open Range Zoo in Melbourne, Australia gave their wards some surprise Easter treats to keep them entertained on Sunday. Just try not to smile while watching these cuties.

Downward goat pose, anyone?

Move over, hot yoga, there's a new yoga trend in town: yoga with baby goat. You can't bleat that!

Jenness Farm in New Hampshire held a yoga class attended by baby goats, who naturally think that yoga poses are meant to be climbed on. WGME has the scoop and the video clip.

The Avondale, Arizona, Police Department announced the acquisition of their new drug-sniffing bearded dragon -on April Fools Day in 2016. The drug-sniffing part was a joke, but the bearded dragon is real. His name is Iroh, and he's been the police department's mascot since then.

“Iroh has turned out to be a valuable member of the Avondale Police family,” according to a Facebook post on Feb. 15. “His skill set is so extensive that we have cross trained him in many areas.”

This week, Iroh was promoted from mascot to police officer. Get the whole story of Iroh and the cops who love him at AZ Family.  -via Fark

Cali the cockatoo and Jackson the Maine Coon cat act out a scenario that may be familiar to you. Cali desperately wants some attention, and Jackson wants none of her shenanigans.

I can see the speech bubbles about their heads now.

Cali: Pay attention to me! I like you; we can be friends!

Jackson: Scram! I'm a cat; you're just a bird. You are lucky I don't eat you.

Cali: Please? Come on, just for a little bit?

Jackson: Oh, all right… No! Someone might see us.

Their owner assures us that most of the time, they get along wonderfully. -via Tastefully Offensive

We've seen amazing canine freestyle routines before, but this is a delight. Sara Carson and her dog Hero come up with more amazing moves for every section of the song. Do not miss the grand finale.

That's a good dog! The song is "Faith" by Stevie Wonder and Ariana Grand. You can also see a video of Hero when he appeared on David Letterman's Stupid Pet Tricks sketch. -via Boing Boing

Putter the squirrel is lucky enough to live near Fantasy Isle Ice Cream & Mini Golf in Holden Beach, North Carolina. She ate ice cream from the outdoor tables after customers left, and developed a taste for the treat. So shop owner Scott Martin now gives her a tiny squirrel-sized cone every day.

While Putter and her ice cream cones are cute and draw customers, wildlife officials say it's not a good idea to feed any wild animals. Especially not ice cream. -via Atlas Obscura

Jimmy the cat was a well behaved kitty that stayed close to home when he went outside and he always got back inside before bed time, but he disappeared in September of 2014. While his family put fliers out and looked all over for the cat, they eventually gave up on finding him after a few months.

Two and a half years later, his owner, Sue Zelitsky, was browsing Facebook when she saw a post about a stray cat that was pulled off the streets, who happened to look a lot like Jimmy. Sue messaged back and forth with the shelter and evidence started piling up. Sue pulled together a bunch of things she thought Jimmy might recognize, but all she needed to do was open the cage door and Jimmy immediately pushed his head up against her. 

Sue and the rest of the family were happy to bring Jimmy home so many years later and the two kittens they adopted in the time he was gone immediately welcomed their new friend as well.

His name is General, and he's a Great Pyrenees. He escaped from the Aquia-Garrisonville Animal Hospital in Stafford, Virginia, Monday morning by opening the latch to his kennel and then three other doors to get outside! His movements were caught on surveillance cameras.

(Facebook link)

It's a good thing General wasn't in need of medical care; he was being boarded while his family was out of town. The dog was found later that day in a yard near the animal hospital. His owner, Travis Campbell, was surprised at the scope of the caper, but knew General was a smart dog. -via Digg

The Florida Marlins played their opening game yesterday against the Atlanta Braves. The game was pretty standard -up until the sixth inning, when delay was called on account of a cat appearing on the field. It then proceeded to avoid capture and it climbed an advertisement until it reached the Marlin's home run statue where it hid out for quite a while. The team disabled the statue (which normally goes off if a home run is scored) while the cat was hiding and eventually the kitty was removed safely from the field.

Penny, a dog owned by Jennifer Bowman's neighbor, loves to say hello. But a tall wooden fence means that the dog has to jump like it's on a trampoline just to get a glimpse. So Bowman had an ingenious solution: a peekaboo hole for a dog (complete with accomodations for the dog's nose, of course!).

Oh, and of course there's a YouTube clip of Penny peeking through the fence.

Wanna see some happy cows? Then you're in for a real treat! "Koeiendans" is a Dutch term meaning "cow dance." Why are these cows so happy? They've been inside their nice warm stalls in the Netherlands for five months, which is good when it's cold outside, but gets a bit frustrating after a while. Now they get to go outside to frolic through the fresh new grass in the pasture. You'd be dancing, too!

These cows belong to Brandsma's Pleats, which might be the farm's name, but it's all Dutch to me. -via Everlasting Blort

No matter what ciganyolga has in his hands, his cat Pocak wants some, and she isn't too proud to beg. She's the very opposite of picky. Or else just has an insatiable curiosity.

(YouTube link)

He tells Pocak's story.

I bought the cat from breeders, and when I picked her up, after watching the 'exhibition' of her parents' awards from different cat 'beauty pageant‎s', they handed me a 10 pages long handbook about what exactly I should feed the cat with, that she only eats Royal Canin etc.
On our way home, I made a deal with the cat: I won't call her von Orchidenwald Baby Mercedes, like her mom, or similar posh cat names, and in exchange, she does not torture me with being snob and picky.
She agreed, and she wants to eat everything. And her name is Pocak (means tummy in Hungarian).

(Begging this way has been her skill since she was a kitty, I did not trained her. I cannot train her to do anything, anyway.)

He's right about that. Cats train us to do their bidding. -via Viral Viral Videos

Nils Ušakovs may be the Big Man in Riga but we know who's actually the boss. Usakovs, the mayor of the capital of Latvia, was being interviewed live on television when his cat nonchalantly walked on his desk to take a sip out of his mug.

The moment it happened is at 17:15 in this video:

Well, at least the cat walked in gently and didn't just strut in ...
