Rangers discovered a one-year-old hippo, whom they have named Owen, alone and dehydrated near Kenya's Indian Ocean coast after he became separated from his herd in 2004.

They took him to a wildlife sanctuary in Mombasa, where he soon found a male tortoise with the same dark grey coloring as adult hippos.

The tortoise initially hissed at Owen, warning him to stay away, but according to park officials the pair have since become inseparable.

The Aldabran tortoise, called Mzee, or "Old Man" in Swahili, now eats and sleeps beside Owen. Rangers say they could not have placed Owen with another herd of hippos as he would have been killed by an adult male.

The park's tourism manager, Pauline Kimoto, told reporters: "Since Owen arrived on 27 December, the tortoise behaves like a mother to him. The hippo follows the tortoise around and licks his face."

The Octavius was an 18th-century ghost ship discovered off the coast of Greenland in 1775. Initially assumed to be empty upon being sighted, when boarded, a spine-shivering sight awaited.

Below the deck, they came across the entire crew, completely frozen. The captain sat rooted, almost stoically, at the table in front of him with a pen still in hand and his log laid out before him.

Written there was the log’s last entry, dated November 11, 1762, and its last recorded position marked their location about 250 miles north of Alaska’s arctic coast.

The ghost ship had been adrift for thirteen years before its discovery, meandering aimlessly for hundreds of miles. And the complete picture is even more chilling.

In 1944, 18-year-old Norma Jeane Baker was a recently-married factory worker aiding the war effort at an aviation facility. When an Air Force photographer happened to spot her on the job, he took her picture and helped put her on the path to pin-up modeling and then movie stardom under a new name: Marilyn Monroe.

60 horses crossing the Icelandic black ash desert with the north wind blowing.

While there is just a tiny herd of actual wild Icelandic horses, in the summertime thousands of horses roam free from various farms.

One photo shows a single, solitary ancient sycamore tree destroyed in an act of eco vandalism that has rightly caused outrage.

The other photo shows one of 108 ancient, native woodlands destroyed to make way for HS2.

Can we get as angry about this too?

Absolutely disgusted to hear about Sycamore Gap this morning & that someone has chainsawed down this beautiful tree. I literally cannot understand why someone would do something like that.

At least I'll have the memory of shooting the Milky Way here, one cold January night.

Pandas don't have particular sleeping spots often falling asleep wherever they are. https://t.co/g2z7uB6W5l
