Aw! **Warm fuzzies instantly fill brain**  

These two sibling arctic foxes in Alaska are playing together. For young foxes like these, rough-housing and play are essential for learning life skills. In the fall, the family will part ways, and the young will be ready to take on the tundra, thanks in part to play with their siblings.

This black-billed magpie took advantage of Wind Cave National Park’s new bison ride-share program. 

One of America’s oldest national parks, you can find wildlife roaming, and riding through, the rolling prairie grasslands and forested hillsides.

These dolphins forage at night in the deep water offshore, then come into shallow bays in the early morning to socialize and rest. This species of dolphin is known for its spinning behavior, where the dolphins leap out of the water, spinning and turning. Although researchers are not certain why they do this, a leading theory is to dislodge remoras and for communication. Spinner dolphins are especially social and are almost never found alone. They typically travel in large pods. Read the entire article.
