As a huge animal lover, I spend a lot of time daydreaming about all the animals I wish I had, both domesticated and wild. But recently, I started thinking about all the cute animals out there that are not talked about as much as they should be. So, here are 7 surprisingly cute animal species that I think we should be talking more about.

1. Bats

Bats have gotten a bit of a bad rap thanks to movies like Batman or Dracula where they are seen as sinister creatures. But in reality, these little guys are like flying tree puppies when you take a closer look at their faces.

2. Axolotl

No, it's not a stuffed animal, it's the real deal. These little guys are amphibians that live underwater and they are the most fascinating sea creatures I've ever seen. I want 12.

3. Kinkajou

Kinkajous are in the raccoon family and live in South America. They are like little lemurs and I am in love.

4. Goldcrest

A little birdy with a bright yellow mohawk? Yes, please!

5. Leopard gecko

Not only does this little guy have some seriously adorable eyes, but he has a stunning black and gold pattern.

6. Alpine Ibex

This might be the most striking, amazing animal I've ever seen. They live all across Europe, and boast some awesome horns. I am intrigued.

7. Chinchilla

These rodents look like the perfect combination of a mouse and a bunny rabbit. They have the cutest little ears and tail, and I want to cuddle one all day long.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
