A blog with the title "Ugly Overload" quickly caught my attention with a picture of a huggably ugly sloth coming out of a hole in the ground. After a quick read, I found that this lovely two-toed sloth was emerging from a latrine sewer hole in Peru after feasting on a healthy meal of human excrement. You read that right, human excrement! YUMMY! The brownish cast to the animal's fur wasn't the natural coloring as I once thought, if you know what I mean. Scientists are having a hard time determining whether the sloths are after the bugs surrounding the waste or if they simply enjoy the salty taste of the urine. (I hope you aren't eating!)Further reading showed 
more pictures of animals that were too ugly not to love. The authors of this blog did a great job of hooking their readers with silly pictures and clever, witty jokes. Craftily hidden behind the humor was wonderful information about new and interesting species all presented in a short and concise blog. I am definitely subscribing to this blog and you should too!

I am definitely subscribing to this blog and you should too!My next new favorite blog initially caught my attention for the same simple reason; it had a great title. "Animals Behaving Badly" is a funny account of many different species that have been in the news for various seemingly "bad" acts. A great example was that of a recent news story of the havoc that macaques cause in South Africa, Thailand, and Japan. An unruly group was recently caught feasting on displays used for a traditional yearly festival in Thailand. RUDE! I guess their parents never told them that eating decorative elements for religious festivals was unacceptable!
This blog is great for a number of reasons. It provides more animal humor while throwing in interesting facts about different animals all over the world. Martha Stewart is even on the blog with her jeans jacket wearing dog sitting in her lap. You can't go wrong with a good Martha Stewart joke to hook your readers. The authors of this blog made their information fun and informational to read and for that reason, I think it is a great blog!
