Cute Bunny Puppies
In each pregnancy, the same rabbit can have very different litters, as they can be composed of 1 to 5 puppies. However, incredibly numerous litters, of up to 15 puppies, have already been registered.
It is also worth noting that in some breeds, especially in medium-sized breeds, it is common for litters to have between 5 and 8 rabbit pups per birth. What usually happens is that the bigger the litter, the higher the mortality rate among the offspring. Many of the baby rabbits practically die at birth.

Strange Planets In Space
In the past 20 years, astronomers around the world have cataloged about 850 planets outside our Solar System.
The search for worlds that orbit other stars has led to the discovery of some strange planets, from a giant of hot gas, darker than coal, to a planet with four suns.
Below, some of the strangest examples.
In a scene from the Star Wars saga, when the character Luke Skywalker looks at the horizon, he sees two suns setting on the planet Tatooine.
Astronomers have already discovered several systems similar to that of fiction, in which planets orbit double stars.
But in 2012, amateur astronomers found a planet illuminated by four stars, the first of its kind.
The distant world is in the constellation of Cygnus, orbits a pair of stars and a second pair revolves around them. It is 5,000 light-years from Earth and its radius is six times that of our planet (the size of Neptune).

Cute Puppies, They Love Doing Pranks
Cute Puppies, They Love Doing Pranks
But after all, what makes a dog dramatic? Do you know those exaggerated and unnecessary attitudes that the pet has, usually to attract attention or try to get rid of something?

Relaxing Songs for Sleeping, Relieving Stress and Meditating
Music can be understood as the art of combining sounds over time and its main characteristics are rhythm, melody and harmony. According to Willems (1969), each of these aspects has its specific performance: the rhythm primarily in the body (in the movements), the melody in the emotions and the harmony in the intellect. Studies show that music can favor the maintenance of mental health, the prevention of stress, the relief of physical tiredness and the induction of relaxation (Voss et al., 2004; Dobbro et al., 2005; Fonseca et al., 2006; Krout, 2007; Gonçalez et al., 2008). It is increasingly noticed that music has important consequences for the emotional and cognitive development of the individual, which leads us to reflect on its use as a therapeutic resource.
