Cute Overload :D
We’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: Polar bear cubs are doublepluscute. So we’re beside ourselves to see these twin polar bears. The pair, born in China last January, have survived into young adulthood — the first twins to do so in China.
Although one of them looks like an eee-veel twin.
Full story, more cuteness, at Daily Mail online.
This little penguin is a Little Penguin, or Kororā in Māori, and he seems to be just tickled by all the attention he’s getting.
Update: Thanks to Sparklette and Barbarella for new video link.
Update 2: Thanks to sender-inner Lucy!

This mostly toothless smile belongs to Tiny, the first gorilla born at the London Zoo in 20 years. At four months, he’s just learning to walk, with some coaching from his loving mom Mjukuu.
Full story at The Sun.
No caption in the world could do this justice, so… press play and brace for pure, universe-spanning awesomeness.

Kiburi, a two-week-old cheetah cub at the San Diego Zoo’s Safari Park, opened his eyes last week.
According to keepers, the cub purrs for his milk bottle, an unusual thing for cheetahs to do. Story, cute video here.
Germany’s Frankfurt Zoo had a surprise; not only did they have their first tiger cub born in 26 years, but to a mother they thought was infertile. The zoo is raising the female, named Daseep, by hand because her mother rejected her (apparently, first-time tiger moms do that sometimes, so don’t be too sad).
They subjected her to a battery of tests, including… THE ANNOY-O-TRON 3000!
Once the cub is sufficiently annoyed, it is deemed to be mentally healthy.
Most leopards have lots of spots, but this one’s just one big spot. It’s an Amur Leopard cub, getting physical (make that getting a physical) at the Serengeti’ Safari Park in Hodenhagen, Germany. Bonus video after the jump!
Oh, that’s right, we don’t have jumps.
