Buzz the pig sitting on command whilst being fed by Serena Garner, animal care assistant at RSPCA Block Fen
Rescue pig that thinks it's a dog, March, Cambridgeshire, UK - 11 Oct 2017
A rescue pig who thinks he is a DOG is being hailed as a real-life "Babe." Ten-year-old Buzz has astounded staff at an RSPCA rescue centre by behaving like a dog and even sitting on command. The porky pot-bellied pig has been likened to "Babe" in the 1995 film of Dick King-Smith's novel about a pig, who think he is a dog. "We were so surprised when we realised he will sit on command, just like a dog. But he only does it if he is offered a banana sandwich," said Serena Garner, animal care assistant at RSPCA Block Fen in March, Cambs. "Buzz is a lovely gentle lad and to see him today, you wouldn't guess he'd had such a rough start. "He's such a happy lad now that he is getting regular meals and lots of attention. He loves to have a mooch about with us here in the field at Block Fen, and he adores a scratch behind the ear." Buzz was taken to the centre in July after suffering some neglect and is now looking for a new home. Anyone interested should contact the centre on 0300 123 0726.

Roe deer Daisy at just a few weeks old
4-month-old orphan deer thinks that she is a dog, Hemsby, Norfolk, Britain - 17 Sep 2014
*Full story: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/phq3
They might share the same wet noses and cute brown eyes but that's where the similarities should end. But not for four-month-old roe deer Daisy who really has no idea she's not a dog. In fact it's been a real case of puppy love since she was saved by an animal rescue centre and befriended by the owners' two dogs. Now the beautiful creature has developed such a 'deer' friendship with the dogs that she believes she is one of them. Daisy and her furry pals sleep together, eat together and play together. The deer's hooves mean the only thing they can't do together is a take walk. But that hasn't stopped them becoming best pals at the Foxy Lodge animal shelter where Daisy was rushed clinging to life at just a few hours old. She was born as her mother lay dying after being hit by a car and was found with her umbilical cord still attached to the body.

They might share the same wet noses and cute brown eyes but that's where the similarities should end. But not for four-month-old roe deer Daisy who really has no idea she's not a dog. In fact it's been a real case of puppy love since she was saved by an animal rescue centre and befriended by the owners' two dogs. Now the beautiful creature has developed such a 'deer' friendship with the dogs that she believes she is one of them. Daisy and her furry pals sleep together, eat together and play together. The deer's hooves mean the only thing they can't do together is a take walk. But that hasn't stopped them becoming best pals at the Foxy Lodge animal shelter where Daisy was rushed clinging to life at just a few hours old. She was born as her mother lay dying after being hit by a car and was found with her umbilical cord still attached to the body.

Syrian-Kurdish YPJ fighters on the Syrian-Iraq Border - 28 Sep 2014
Facing each other across the Iraq-Syria border, the towns of Al-Yarubiyah, Syria, and Rabia, Iraq, were taken by Islamic State insurgents in August 2014. Since then The town of Al-Yarubiyah and parts of Rabia have been re-taken by fighters from the Syrian Kurdish YPG. At present the situation in the towns is static, but with large exchanges of sniper and heavy machine gun fire as well as mortars and rocket propelled grenades, recently occasional close quarter fighting has taken place as either side tests the defences of the other.

The leopard that thinks it's a meerkat, Linyanti Game Reserve, Botswana, Africa - 26 Feb 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Lets Kamogelo/Solent News / Rex Features ( 1307206c )
Spotted: The Leopard That Thinks It's A Meerkat
A safari guide thought he was seeing things when he spotted a leopard acting like a meerkat.
The big cat in question had been carefully stalking a warthog when its prey disappeared into some particularly long grass.
In order to keeps its dinner in sight, every few minutes the leopard would balance expertly on its hind legs - doing an excellent meerkat impersonation - and peer over the grass.
The bizarre spectacle was caught on camera by 27-year-old Letsogile Kamogelo at Savuti Camp in the Linyanti Game Reserve, Botswana.
Mr Kamogelo, who works as a safari guide, said he had never heard of a leopard behaving in such a way.
He explained: "This leopard had spotted a warthog from a distance and stalked it for almost an hour.
"He kept a reasonable distance from his prey but he lost sight of the warthog when it went in to tall grass.
"That's when he stood on his hind legs to try and catch sight of it.
"He lifted himself up for at least 45 seconds to a minute at a time. I don't think he was comfortable holding the position for any longer.
"He was very careful whenever he stood up because he didn't want to fall on his back.
"This is a very unusual behaviour and I have never heard or read about it before.
"There is a lot of animal behaviour that has not been recorded and it is mostly influenced by the type of terrain.
"The animal has to respond to the changes within its environment and it may display unusual behaviour like this.
"I've had a great response to the picture. It surprises a lot of people - including those who have been guiding for many years."

Coco the piglet, who thinks she is a dog, Fair Oak, Hampshire, Britain - 06 Oct 2010
Mandatory Credit: Photo by M & Y Agency Ltd / Rex Features ( 1230898f )
Meet Coco - The Barking Mad Pig
Coco the pig is driving her owners barking mad after convincing herself she is a dog.
The lonely, four-month-old piglet was given to the St Francis Animal Welfare Shelter in Fair Oak, Hampshire by a family who could no longer care for her.
Since then pint-sized Coco has become firm friends with German Shepherd Jay.
So much so that the youngster is apparently convinced she is a dog - even going for walks on a lead, fetching sticks and guarding the other pooches.
Coco's behaviour has earned her the nickname 'Babe' in reference to the 1995 film of the same name in which a talking piglet takes on the role of a sheepdog.
Centre manager Sueltan Day said: "It is funny to see her and the other dogs together. I genuinely think she believes she is a dog as she copies what they do.
"One of our dogs, a German Shepherd called Jay, has taken her under her paw so to say and protects her when they run around together in the field.
"She is a fantastic pig and good fun. She loves running around and playing with the other dogs. It is bizarre but amazing."
Coco is from the Kune Kune breed, which often enjoys the company of other animals, but it is rare for them to imitate canines.
Amazed Sueltan said: "This is the first time I have heard of something like this. Coco and the German Shepherd Jay are best friends.
"It is like a little and large partnership going on. They are brilliant together and Jay acts like her mother.
"The do everything together - eat, sleep and play. It is amazing and it would be hard to split the two up."

"She is a fantastic pig and good fun. She loves running around and playing with the other dogs. It is bizarre but amazing."
Coco is from the Kune Kune breed, which often enjoys the company of other animals, but it is rare for them to imitate canines.
Amazed Sueltan said: "This is the first time I have heard of something like this. Coco and the German Shepherd Jay are best friends.
"It is like a little and large partnership going on. They are brilliant together and Jay acts like her mother.
"The do everything together - eat, sleep and play. It is amazing and it would be hard to split the two up."

Coco the piglet, who thinks she is a dog, Fair Oak, Hampshire, Britain - 06 Oct 2010
Coco the pig is driving her owners barking mad after convincing herself she is a dog. The lonely, four-month-old piglet was given to the St Francis Animal Welfare Shelter in Fair Oak, Hampshire by a family who could no longer care for her. Since then pint-sized Coco has become firm friends with German Shepherd Jay. So much so that the youngster is apparently convinced she is a dog - even going for walks on a lead, fetching sticks and guarding the other pooches. Coco's behaviour has earned her the nickname 'Babe' in reference to the 1995 film of the same name in which a talking piglet takes on the role of a sheepdog. Centre manager Sueltan Day said: "It is funny to see her and the other dogs together. I genuinely think she believes she is a dog as she copies what they do. "One of our dogs, a German Shepherd called Jay, has taken her under her paw so to say and protects her when they run around together in the field".

Gosling Who Thinks it's a Peacock, Hampshire, Britain - 17 Jun 2009
GOSLING WHO THINKS IT'S A PEACOCK
A newborn gosling thinks its a peacock after being raised by a group of the colourful birds.
The two-week-old orphan bird was adopted by a maternal peahen, the female equivalent of a peacock, after she unwittingly sat on goose eggs bought from a shop.
The peahen, called Valentine, seems unaware that her chick is not the same species - walking him around the garden and putting it to bed at night.
And the two-week-old gosling, known as Goosey Gander, seems perfectly happy to waddle behind his new mum.
Tiny Goosey could have ended up as breakfast but owner Caroline Halse decided to give him a chance.
The 70-year-old bed and breakfast owner had been given two goose eggs as a present from friends.
Goose eggs are known to be ideal for scrambled eggs but, having always wanted a goose, Mrs Halse decided to see if the eggs would hatch.
She said: "We didn't know if the eggs were fertilised because they had been bought from a shop.
"As a joke I decided to see if Valentine would sit on them."
The 12-year-old peahen had produced her own chicks before but had become infertile two years ago.
Mrs Halse said: "She hasn't any chicks of her own for two years so it was rather nice for her to have Goosey Gander this year.
"The goose eggs were so large I wasn't sure if Valentine would sit on them but she did for 31 days and this tiny yellow thing came out."
One of the eggs was found to be unfertilised but the other hatched, much to Mrs Halse's surprise.
She said: "My gardener noticed one of the eggs was hatching and when he told me I couldn't believe it."
Just like she had with her previous brood, Valentine sat in her nest with her unusual newborn for five days before t...
