Worst Fathers In The Animal Kingdom

5 Worst Dads In The Animal Kingdom

Father's Day may be this Sunday, but there are some deadbeat dads in the animal kingdom who shouldn't expect cards this weekend.

The body of the feline is being sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for testing.

His illness marks the fifth case of plague in Oregon since 1995.

More than a dozen people who were in contact with the sick man have been notified and are receiving preventive antibiotics.
