Cute Animal Pictures of the Day

I should probably post something on the intellectual side, especially after that last video post. Instead, I'm going to post cute pictures of otters because they make me happy. I love otters; sea or river, it doesn't matter. I got to go on exhibit with the sea otters when I worked at the Georgia Aquarium a couple of times and it was wonderful. I miss them incredibly.

To the left, you is one of the most adorable animal pictures I've ever seen: an Asian small-clawed otter holding its little baby. This picture is so cute sometimes I can't even stand it. Awww...

More pictures below.

Teddy on People.com!

My little baby is on People.com's homepage! I'm too excited. I should also mention that the person he's standing on in the photo is my mom, so I guess she's on People.com, too! Congrats to Teddy and Mom!

Oh, and that also means he's on People Pet's homepage again, too! What a little cutie pie!

Check him out: www.people.com (scroll down, he's on the right side)

P.S. He's also on the homepage with Robert Pattinson; could I be any prouder??

Voted Cutest Pet of the Day on People Pets!!!

I'm so proud of my baby boy. He won cutest pet of the day on People Pets (which is People Magazine's equivalent for pets). I'm so proud of my little super star!

My Baby Boy

Ok, I'm obsessed with my dog. Theodore Bear Dye (or Teddy as he's better known) is an eight month old maltese. He was the runt of his litter and was only a pound when we got him! He was supposed to be about five and a half pounds, however, he hit a growth spurt at about three months old and now weighs more than eight pounds.

Needless to say, I love him.

Cute Animals Part 1

This is my last week at the Georgia Aquarium and I am deeply saddened! I will be starting a graduate school program in August, full-time, and therefore can't continue my position with the Aquarium.

I've gotten into the habit of sending my friends at work cute animal e-mails. As a tribue to the Aquarium and my buddies here, I've decided to do a final installment of five cute animal e-mails and I'm going to post them here. Enjoy!

More Teddy Videos!

The cutest maltese puppy ever, Teddy, appears in more videos on YouTube!

Insanely Big Cats

So this may just be the worst blog post ever, but I have to share these big cat pictures with someone. Did you know that house cats can get to be this large? I surely did not. (note: obviously the last one is fake)

Meet Teddy!

I'm a proud new mother to a little maltese puppy! His name is Theodore Bear Dye (Teddy for short). He was born December 26, 2008, and he's a bundle of energy!

Check out my YouTube video of Teddy's first night home!

My Valentine's Day E-card

For Valentine's Day, the mission assigned to me at work was to create the Aquarium's Valentine e-card. For my first attempt, I'm actually pretty proud of myself! Click here to check it out and be sure to send the e-card to your friends!

Sea Turtles Make Great Dates

I got to eat my lunch with Murphy the other day (Georgia Aquarium's loggerhead sea turtle). The biologists have taught him how to get onto a blue stretcher (in case they need to examine him) and they practice this behavior with him during the feed. They also practice having him touch his nose to a white ball. This gives him mental enrinchment and allows them to guide Murphy where they need him to go. He's adorable!

Animal Babies!

Check out my new favorite site, Zoo Borns! It has all the newborn animal babies from various zoos and aquariums (like these meerkat babies). Georgia Aquarium's newborn wobbegong shark pups are up there and they're adorable! http://www.zooborns.com/

Joey's Return to the Sea

I got to go on my first trip with Georgia Aquarium! Three Aquarium biologists and I traveled to St. Simons Island with Joey, the Aquarium's loggerhead sea turtle, to release him back into the ocean! I went as a part of the new media team to document the event with photos and video.

Joey was a rescued hatchling and the Aquarium rehabilitated him. Once Joey was six years old, Aquarium biologists weaned him off human care and taught him the skills needed to return to the ocean.

We released Joey on Thursday, Sept. 11, 2008 on St. Simons Island, GA. Prior to the release, Joey was fitted with a special satellite transmitter, which allows the Aquarium to monitor Joey's activities and movements. It was amazing to see him swim out to sea and to track him online! What an awesome experience!
