Top five animal videos in the history of the Internet
Animals are fascinating creatures with unpredictable traits. From a cat unexpectedly enjoying petting a toddler to a monkey stealing your phone, their behaviour can surprise us.
Fortunately, in today's age, we can capture these unique moments forever. Here are the top five animal videos in the Internet's history that showcase the animal kingdom's wonderfully chaotic yet charming nature.
HUGE Monitor Lizard Destroys Supermarket Shelves
A viral video captured the chaos as a massive monitor lizard invaded a Thai supermarket, climbing shelves in search of food. The 6ft reptile caused panic at a 7-Eleven in Nakhon Pathom province, tossing cartons of milk and prompting staff and customers to find safety. Police and reptile handlers were called to the scene, successfully removing the lizard unharmed.
Man Punches A Kangaroo In The Face To Rescue His Dog (Original HD) || ViralHog
A group of hunters gathered to fulfil a young cancer patient's final wish: catching a 100 kg wild boar with his dogs. During the hunt, one of the dogs tangled with a large kangaroo. The owner intervened when the kangaroo threatened both the dog and the human. After a cautious standoff, the owner deterred the kangaroo with a punch to its snout, allowing everyone to safely disengage. Despite the tense moment, they found humour in the odd situation and were grateful no harm was done. This memorable hunt now honours Kailem's memory, who sadly lost his battle with cancer just days before.
The Original Grumpy Cat!
This video is one of the funniest and cutest for obvious reasons - just look at this cat’s face! Known as the ‘Real Grumpy Cat’ or Tardar Sauce, she was an American Internet celebrity famous for her permanently grumpy expression, caused by an underbite and feline dwarfism. Though Tardar Sauce is no longer with us, she will always be remembered fondly.
The Sneezing Baby Panda
No one could have predicted what happened next as the pair relaxed at the zoo. In the viral video ‘Sneezing Baby Panda’, a mother panda at the Wolong Panda Breeding Centre peacefully munches on bamboo while her baby cub sleeps nearby. Suddenly, the cub lets out a squeaky sneeze, startling the mother before she resumes eating as if nothing happened.
Battle at Kruger
‘Battle at Kruger’ is an eight-minute amateur wildlife video filmed in September 2004 at Kruger National Park, South Africa. It captures a gripping encounter between a herd of Cape buffalo, a group of young lions, and two crocodiles at a watering hole.
