Majestic Wolf
Believe it or not, this massive dog is actually part wolf! He was sent to an animal sanctuary where they sent his DNA for testing, and his results were 85 % Gray Wolf, 10 % Siberian Husky, and 4 % German Shepherd. Now we have heard for 23andme, but 23 and man’s best friend?
We are not so familiar with that app, to be honest. Needless to say, he’s as cute as he is fierce. But one thing is for sure – we wouldn’t want to come face-to-face with him in the forest anytime soon! Also, these two are most definitely family.
Cassius The Giant Crocodile
Crocs are big and scary enough, there are no two ways about it. So imagine if you add a record-breaking Cassius Clay to the mix. When you do that, you have got yourself a really great story. While this crocodile may not be the biggest one in the world, it definitely made the books for the largest of its kind that was raised in captivity.
Since the year 2011, Cassius has been safely residing in a wildlife park situated in the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and measures at a whopping 17 feet in length. That is roughly the size of two ping-pong tables. Imagine having two pairs of friends playing a couples of semi-finals on that thing.
Big Boy and Baby Boy
Everyone needs someone looking out for them if they are going to get anywhere in life. And this definitely is the case when babies are concerned. Of course, the bare minimum is to have a parent who raises you well and gives you enough love and support. But a huge dog can also go a long way.
The Newfie is just 16 months older than his new baby friend, and just look how big he is! Newfies are also known for being great babysitters because of their gentle nature. That little baby is probably wondering, "why am I not cuddling with the furball?" We know we would be!
The Greatest Great Dane of All Time
This monstrous canine that's fed on a hearty diet of 2 pounds of ground beef daily, casserole steak, liver, and the odd chunk of sofa sponge measures 40.75 inches in length. Freddy, as he is named, resides in Essex, England, lives with his owner Clair Stoneman. She told the Telegraph that he has destroyed a number of couches, 26 to be exact.
Freddy is also now, at least according to the Guinness World Record, bigger than Zeus as of the year 2017. He is now 7 years old. And we imagine that at least handful of other sofas will get destroyed before everything is said and done.
The World's Largest Millipede
Scaling down to our creepy crawly friends, this kind of "animal kingdom" has its own version of beasts and monsters, and one of them comes in the form of a millipede that measures 15 inches long and 2 inches in circumference. The average size of a millipede generally measures about 6 inches.
That should put this remarkable discovery into a bit of perspective. Even though a human towers over the full-grown African giant black millipede, its unusual and foreboding length gives it quite a frightening appearance, even to the toughest of us. Not to mention the fact that, as the name suggests, this thing has a lot of legs.
