Somehow, deep inside, we knew those Tibetans were wild, didn’t we? I mean, what’s with sitting up in the mountains all day waiting for someone to come to you, ask you a question and such?

Well, a few Tibetan wild asses got loose, or took to the fields, whatever, to hang out with the Qinghai-Tibet railway in Northwest China’s Qinghai province.

The wild asses (kiang) frolicked about and otherwise posed for pix. What were you expecting to see?

Run, fellas, run, before some goof ball in the name of trying to save you puts you in a zoo.

After seeing these pictures I remember childhood and the way I was hanging out with my friends. We used to walk and walk, with no set destination. Apparently that’s what wolf cubs do, too.

Bjørn and Birgit Sandberg were on a holiday at their cabin in Rendalen, Norway, when six wolf cubs – about two months old – paid them a surprising visit after feasting on a moose in the woods. “There’s clearly been a party here. There were only bones left” Bjørn Sandberg told Aftenposten.no on Tuesday.

They’re supposed to be the offspring of a wolf pair from Østerdalen, that wandered westward.

It was the first time Bjørn and Birgit saw wolves and though they were aware they may be adult wolves in the area they grabbed the camera and got all the six wild wolves pups in a sensational picture. First one in Norway.

To be sure, it is not always we foolish humans that drive animals out of their natural habitats, Mother Nature can do it, too. A May 12th earthquake in the mountains of Sichuan Province devastated some of the natural habitats of the wolves in that same region. Only about 10 wolves have been sighted since and the government has dispatched observation teams.

I mean, if they don’t find enough wolves, who’s going to star in the Chinese remake of Little Red Riding Hood?

“The wild animals live in the remote and deep mountainous area, and are scared after the earthquake, so they go out of the deep mountains,” according to Yang Feiyu, head of one animal protection station.

If we take the big picture in the whole balance of nature scenario, this could be considered a good thing overall. Don’t you think?
