“Indie developer Hothead Games surprised people with the simultaneous announcement and release of its newest game today, Bunny the Zombie Slayer for iOS.
Appropriately enough for Easter, you play as a bunny who shoots eggs at attacking zombies. The debut trailer makes it look like a combination of Plants vs. Zombies (in that there are zombies shambling across someone’s yard from right to left) and Angry Birds (you fling eggs, slingshot-style, to take out your enemies).

The developer offered up the following description: “You control a heroic bunny, who must protect children searching for his eggs from waves of Zombie Hordes. These once-deceased characters (nurses, businessmen, cheerleaders and more) will stop at nothing to take what is most precious from these young ovo-searchers. Using the Bunny?s weapon of choice, brightly colored eggs, you can unleash a yolky fury to dismember and decapitate the undead. Aim for the head!”"

Well, today I finally got my paws on the security footage from the hotel... but I can't figure out who I need to press charges against... so if you all could help me figure out who my attackers are, that would be much appreciated."

"I've seen so many people compare the two that I thought I'd just make a comic about it. Also, this is a joke. Sort of. But while both are clearly fantastical creatures that coudn't exist in real life, from what I know of the two, it seems like pokemon at least has some sort of pseudo-science or logic regarding the designs, anatomy, and functions of various aspects of the creatures of the pokemon universe while digimon seems to enjoy packing on as much armor and spiked metal as humanly fucking possible. Not saying one is inferior or superior, but that's what it looks like lol. Then a

"Hey furs! We are right in that time of year when a lot of people start looking at cleaning out their homes and maybe getting rid of some things. If you are thinking of cleaning out some of your belongings, before you give everything to a resale shop look through your stuff and see if anything might be great for the Tiger Haven charity auction. Maybe you have an awesome collection of wolf plushes that you just don't appreciate as much anymore. Or something geeky, like a cool old computer game, that you no longer use. Maybe you love all your belongings but happen to enjoy frequenting y

We knew something was fishy when Bucktown Tiger posted a video claiming he was assaulted by a couple of “unknown” furs while at Furry Fiesta. Seems the details of the assault never made it to twitter that weekend, which, even at a convention, would be extremely unusual for Bucktown.

The footage was obviously staged… Vote for it at FAILBLOG!!

And today, we find this… Enjoy!

The sight of magnificent beasts roaming the savannahs of Kenya stirs the blood, and speaking of blood, plenty is shed in this eye popping documentary. It is the latest in a string of recent animals-in-nature films, each of which is unique and gripping in its own way.
African Cats is about the tooth and claw existence of two cat prides struggling to exist in a patch of land on either side of a dangerous, crocodile infested river.
The crocodiles are crucial elements in the unfolding of this story of war and domination. With the rival groups – cheetahs and lions – staring each other down from opposite edges of the water, we know only one thing stops them from tearing each other apart – the crocodiles just under the surface. The cats have a healthy respect for these silent menaces that could crack a lion in two with its jaws.
And so things go until the height of summer when the river water evaporates and it’s easy for a lion crossing the river to see if a crocodile lurks. And then the pride leaders can have at it to decide who will be the victor and who will be forced by the immutable laws of nature to slink away forever, leaving behind his lionesses, his cubs and his stature.
The violence that permeates the wild animals’ lives is unimaginable; we know they eat other animals to live, sometimes their own species, but seeing it up close, repeatedly, with all kinds of diverse life forms on the menu, is something else. It is almost too intense, but it’s what happens and that’s all there is to that. It’s real, insofar as documentaries are real.
