The Dramatic Chipmunk - (which is in fact a Prairie Dog, itself not a dog but a rodent). YouTube clip, 5 sec, AUDIO required(!), SFW. I cannot believe this hasn't been posted...

Also, here is a clip of an Otter @ London Zoo playing with a small white rock in a rather exceptional & amusing manner. YouTube clip, 60 sec, Audio, SFW. These pointless but slightly amusing animal videos have been brought to you by me.

  • *coffee spittake* I think the best part is all the adaptations and sequels.
  • I wonder if the first one isn't a Richardson's Ground Squirrel. /Clavin These are fabulous! Thanks.
  • Oh, these are lovely. The Rock Otter owns my heart-- as, today, do you, Chy.
  • That otter needs an agent. Apparently, the prairie dog/ground squirrel already has one.
  • Submit your own Prairie Dog video http://dramaticprairiedog.com/
  • That odd little creature appeared originally here. I find the reaction of the giggling girls just as funny.
  • Flaggie means here, folks. Just more evidence for my contention that Japanese TV embodies fabulous forces that the viewer must encounter, thus gaining the power to return to the internets & bestow boons for all mankind, like a large lizard stumbling towards many small Japanese pop princesses with slabs of pork duct-taped to their heads.
  • Don't miss the "otters holding hands" video in the (rock otter sidebar) if you need just another wee touch of teh squee.
  • Darwin sez: Sea Otters have evolved to hold hands to avoid being separated on the open sea, and to induce incapacitating squee in potential predators.
  • Monkeyfilter: incapacitating squee.
  • Check out the "dancing otter" video in the rock otter sidebar -- that little guy would fit right in with the ottoman molesters. Damn.
  • It's interesting how far we've come since ten years ago.
  • Prairie-dog/chipmunk with the finest example of a WTF expression ever seen. And that dancing otter, ooh yeah, Be yon ce otter. To the life. Lerves it!
  • A href="http://cuteotters.com/>Better get out teh squee-glasses!
  • ARRRRRRGH!! Tags suck! Better get out teh squee-glasses!
  • Hold it. Hold it. I've been surfing many times in Northern California and one of the things I've learned is this. OTTERS ARE MEAN LITTLE FUCKING ANIMALS. There is nothing cue about otters. They bite. They attack you if you get too close. Mean little rat bastards. They're little hell-hounds of the sea. Pure evil.
  • Argh, if I were you, I'd find a new ISP. Can't have otters coming down the tubes, now can we?
  • SEND OUT THE BATTLE-OTTERS. DEATH TO ARGH!!
  • Hah hah ha hah ha ha ha! That's wonderful. But is it actually a loris, in fact?
  • Or a lorax?
  • Is it a tarsier?
  • It's a Tarsier, I think it's a Philippine Tarsier. They're often called Bush Babies, which is wrong, as true Bush Babies are a different animal, & are in fact Lemurs, but you're right, this is a different animal altogether. When I posted it I had blithely ignored this. On preview, yes, roryk got it. It took me so long to write this, I was eating.
  • Anyway, it is now traditional to totally ignore the true species of the dramatic animal in question, as the Dramatic Chipmunk is in fact a goat.
  • My favorite little green guy and an otter: Are those clams? Turn sound on at 17 seconds, turn off at 26 seconds--charming
