But the fun doesn't stop with the babies, as we've rounded up many other amazing photos, from two polar bears' first meeting and a surfing dog to a scary shark and some spectating reptiles.

I'm Scarred For Life
I Have A New Screensaver!
"Zetita", a 20-day old tiger cub, lies in his pen at the home of his owner Jose Juarez Gil, popularly known as Pepe Tigre, in Cancun, Mexico, Tuesday Nov. 9, 2010. Juarez Gil, who has led a decades long struggle to open a zoo in Cancun, is facing new troubles after one of his adult tigers, the father of "Zetita", injured a man on Monday. He claims there is a campaign to take away his animals and his land, while animal defense activists say he can't properly care for the tigers, some of which have died. (AP Photo/Dario Lopez-Mills)

That's the saddest baby tiger I've ever seen. Can't they even clean its eyes? It breaks my heart.
Look at the Pittsburgh cubs to see what a "content" baby tiger is supposed to look like.

Hate the slideshow presentation, and why the multiple images of the same thing. Okay, I SAW the baby gorilla!

There's a theory in evolution biology that Mother Nature made babies cute so their parents won't kill them when they act up. Well, it worked.

#41 was totally worth it.

I did love the look on the iguana's face looking at that delicious salad. Like he didn't believe his windfall.

I really like this segment. If only it was easy to keep little tigers as pets! Has anyone seen Stephen Fry feeding a Rhino video? It's super cute!

Mostly adorable, dogs eating at table not so much. My dogs already try to do this, at the human table and the kitchen counter -- amazing how tall dogs can be when they're motivated by food -- and it's actually more annoying than cute. ;)

I love this segment every week! All these animals are adorable.

I have a 3 way tie right now for my favorites....Baby Tiger, Polar Bears, and Dogs eating at the table!
