These are a couple videos highlighting the lives of 69-year-old funeral director Hisao Mitani and his 26-year old African spurred tortoise, Bon-Chan. The two have been together since Mitani’s wife found Bon-Chan in a pet shop 26 years ago, and since the tortoise was about 10 (and a decent size),

This is a video of Ruri Green Frog, a jealous Australian green tree frog (aka White’s tree frog — I am an amateur herpetologist after all) constantly photobombing its owner Piyo’s attempts to film another frog. Frogs: they have personalities. Mine are perfect little angels. And I don’t try to
