I still just smile at her even if it is 2am or 4am. She reminds me of a little clockwork toy. Everyone just assumes she is a newborn.?Friend Sarah Bramhall, 31, who has helped Karenza rear the puppy, said: 褾or all the work she has put in she deserves some recognition and Belle is such a superstar.?〦 图片来源：Exclusivepix2012年11月13日消息（具体拍摄时间不详），1.5英寸大小的龟Tank。Tank是如此的小，甚至能够被装在一个小勺子里。Paradise野生动物公园的游客们都被这只迷你小龟所吸引。目前Tank只有6个月大，直到6至8岁时，才会完全长成。Tank属于赫曼氏陆龟，目前被一个私人收藏家抚养。BROXBOURNE, UNITED KINGDOM - UNDATED: Tank the one-and-a-half inch tortoise sits in the head of a spoon at Paradise Wildlife Park, in Broxbourne, England.TANK the tiny tortoise is so small he fits inside the head of a SPOON. Visitors to Paradise Wildlife Park in Hertfordshire have been amazed by the cute critter, who measures just one-and-a-half inches long - around the same as a standard key. Tiny Tank was gifted to staff at the park by previous head of reptiles Ross Hickles as a leaving present. But now he is wowing crowds with his lust for life - despite his minute frame. Despite only being six-months-old, he will not be fully grown until between the ages of six and eight. Tank, a Hermann's tortoise, was born alongside his brother, who is now cared for by a private collector.PHOTOGRAPH BY Paradise Wildlife Park/BarcroftUK Office, London.

The animals are under threat - but not this pampered pet who loves nothing more than a swim After a week of prickly news for hedgehogs, at least this adorable little chap looks bristling with joy.But then Hokey is an African Pygmy hedgehog living the high life in an apartment rather than taking his chances in the wild like Britain誷 declining one million hedgehogs.Shockingly, earlier this week a hedgehog was found in student accommodation at Sheffield University, with his spikes cruelly cut off.Frankie, as he has been named, is being nursed back to health at an animal sanctuary.How different things are for Hokey. Col Skinner, 29, a digital marketing consultant, and partner Beki Smith, 24, a social media executive, bought him for ?200 from a specialist breeder at eight weeks old.Now aged nine months, he has settled in to their second- storey flat in Manchester and enjoys the run of the place when the couple get home.Mr Skinner said: 訵e chose him after finding out they make great pets. He loves swimming in the bath then getting wrapped in a flannel. They誶e natural swimmers.?However, an RSPCA spokesman sounded a note of caution: 訟frican Pygmy hedgehogs have more specialist requirements than more traditional domesticated pets, so it誷 difficult to meet their needs in a household environment.訵 图片来源：Exclusivepix Media当地时间2017年6月24日，列宁格勒州，伊达尔戈州农场养殖的美国小型马。其中一匹小马驹出生时身高仅30厘米体重3公斤，它将打破吉尼斯世界记录。 图片来源：barcroftmedia2009年9月3日消息，生活在德国的一只罗得西亚脊背犬近日收养了一只被遗弃的越南锅腹猪。它给这只两周大的迷你猪喝自己的奶，像亲生母亲那样照顾它。小猪在8月21日被自己的母亲遗弃，后来很幸运地被罗得西亚脊背犬的主人救起，并且交给他家的狗照顾。“狗妈妈”一见到小猪就喜欢上了它，于是我们就看到了这些温馨而不可思议的画面。***EXCLUSIVE, SPECIAL FEES***GERMANY: These adorable pictures show how a huge dog adopted a tiny runt-of-the-litter piglet and even started feeding her with her own milk. Surrogate mum Katjinga, an eight-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback, took on motherly duties for Paulinchen - a tiny Vietnamese pot-bellied pig - after the little grunter was rejected by her mother on August 21. Cold and shaking Paulinchen was luckily discovered moments from death by Roland Adam, 54, and placed in the care of the family dog who gladly accepted it as one of her own.适Thankfully for the two-week old mini porker, Katjinga fell in love with her at first site and saved the piggy's bacon. The unlikely relationship has made the wrinkly pig a genuine sausage dog.PHOTOGRAPH BY ANIMAL PRESS / BARCROFT MEDIA LTDUK Office, London.T +44 845 370 2233W www.barcroftmedia.comAustralasian & Pacific Rim Office, Melbourne.E info@barcroftpacific.comT +613 9510 3188 or +613 9510 0688W www.barcroftpacific.comIndian Office, Delhi.T +91 997 1133 889W www.barcroftindia.com 图片来源：barcroftmedia2019年4月2日讯（具体拍摄时间不详），马达加斯加，科学家在当地发现一种名为“Mini mum”的青蛙，它堪称世界最迷你的青蛙之一，成年个体仅有1厘米长，能轻松坐在人类的手指甲上。 图片来源：SWNS/视觉中国
