O.K. I have to admit, I let the cuteness bug get the best of me for some of these. If you’re allergic to them, just speed on through. I promise there are also plenty of amusing animal pics mixed in with a few gorgeous, exquisite shots. If you make it safely to the videos, you must watch the amazing one of the elk herd through to the end. I guarantee it’s worth it.
