This is a video from a hotel balcony overlooking the ocean in Panama City Beach, Florida where a hammerhead beelines it for a man standing in the water, who a fish briefly used as cover to avoid the shark. It certainly looks scary, but it’s pretty clear the shark was

This is a timelapse video made by Jan van IJken of a newt zygote transforming into a tadpole over the course of six minutes. Of course in real time this would have taken much longer. Probably twenty to thirty minutes. *girlfriend whispers in ear* Okay I’ve just been informed that

Because Mother Nature’s freaky-deakiness knows no bounds, this is a short clip of a scorpion with a backful of newborns glowing under blacklight. Why do scorpions glow under blacklight? Scientists still aren’t sure — some speculate it helps them find each other or attract prey. Others believe that they glow

Because when you’re a giant shelf cloud you can jaywalk all you want, this is a video of one crossing the street somewhere in Georgia. Mother Nature is wild, isn’t she? Like one shot of Jack Daniels and she’s dancing on the bar with her top off, her breasts lunging

This is a video of Damian from California Carnivores pouring out a hybrid Nepenthes pitcher plant (Nepenthes truncata x Nepenthes lowii) that caught and digested a small rodent, likely a mouse. In the wilds of Borneo, Nepenthes lowii produces a substance that attracts tree shrews, which come and eat the
