In fact, despite being the tallest animal, giraffes have the shortest sleep requirements of any mammal, sleeping an average of just 30 minutes per day. And when they do sleep, usually it's just for a few minutes; until the 1950s, researchers believed that giraffes don't sleep at all. So while these sleeping beasts might not seem very impressive, you're witness something few...

    	I am a French photographer born in 1981, and I began my work by photographing extreme sports in urban areas. Influenced by geek culture, my artistic approach is now focused on small LEGO® characters. My work combines the techniques of photography, street art, model making and installations; in my created microcosms, I play with scale and material to alter perception.

    	My work examines the beauty and brutality of the natural world. My sculptural language is formed by surrounding landscapes and nature, and engages with themes of memories, identity, and place. Sculptures and installations consist of thousands of hand-crafted porcelain shards, a technique that yields a texture both delicate and severe.

    	To figure out what your heart line says about the relationships you encounter in life and the love life you experience, you'll have to compare your your heart line (outlined in red) on the palm of your right hand.

    	These surprising photos show masses of butterflies interacting with various animals. But why do they do it, especially with such risk to themselves? One answer is that butterflies typically swarm during migration, and these pictures capture such a moment. The other answer is that butterflies can't get all the minerals they need from flowers, making them attracted to things that are salty.

    	I was looking for a special needs dog to adopt and found Daisy in the summer of 2011. She was born with a congenital deformity in her front legs and uses a wheelchair to assist her walk. After learning that disabled dogs have a difficult time finding a forever home and are usually the first ones to be listed to euthanize at the shelter, I was heartbroken.

    	Baby wild animals like Dinozzo, a fox cub whose mother was killed in a road-side collision, often don’t stand much of a chance when their parents are taken away from them. Luckily for this three-week-old fox cub, he was handed over to a vet and then adopted by an animal-loving couple in Germany with a beautiful collie dog named Ziva, whose motherly instincts helped nurse him back to health.

    	It always sucks when your favorite star retires. You favorite singer stops putting out albums, or your favorites character from a show gets killed off... The good thing about fighters is that they're naturally pretty restless, and retirement isn't really a thing. Here are 11 fighters who made the leap to the silver screen. Sure, it's not as cool as legitimate fighting, but it's close enough.

I know them by heart – their favorite places to be, what they like and how they fly. To capture the beauty and sweetness of these insects I used macro photography and natural surroundings. They usually spend their time on colorful flowers, which make photographs playful and more cheerful.

    	This set is about sheep from Tuscan fields. These several pictures was taken during few trips to Italy, mainly on spring and summer. Herds of sheep are very popular in this area so I decided to make some pictures in good locations with them. It was quite hard sometimes because they moved not where I wanted and it’s not a good idea to come closer to negotiate with them. All of them are guarded by Tuscan dogs that are not always friendly with photographers :)
