Fire up our latest collection of funny parenting tweets and you'll know that moms and dads never get tired. Or, who knows, maybe you even have a little bundle of joy to remind you of that every single day.

OMG, I saw a baby rhino once, in the huge savannah habitat at the San Diego Animal Park! The mother was just standing there like a boulder, like your typical adult rhino, while the baby charged around and around her like an Olympic track team on amphetamines. It was still at it when we left.

The Look
Katie Lutesinger 4 years ago
We had a broody hen who kept trying to incubate two unfertilised eggs, so one night we sneakily switched them out for two chicks. It worked - next day she was out in the yard with her new babies, proud as anything! She raised them both beautifully.

When my goat had kids she was super protective for like 2 weeks, crying if the kids were out of her sight and then after that she was like "take em away, its fine" cause we would take her and the kids out for walks.
