The Cutest Lil Runt Ever: A 6-Pound Horse

This is Einstein, a 6-pound pinto stallion. I happen to love beans and horses, so he's a great combo. And smart (I have a dog named Einstein and he's a genius, plus rubs his rocket on my arm).

Weighing in at just six pounds, the New Hampshire-born foal may be the world's smallest horse. Dr. Rachel Wagner, Einstein's co-owner, says the Guinness record for the smallest newborn horse is 9 pounds. Wagner notes Einstein shows no signs of dwarfism, unlike the current record holder.

Great, now I want a pony. I went my whole childhood not wanting one (I liked turtles) and now I do. I'm 28-years old for crying out loud, I feel like such a girl. Okay, not really. But as soon as my roommate leaves for work and I put her panties on I will. High-five, Craigslist roomies!

Hit the jump for a bunch more of the almost unbearable cuteness.

    Plus they can stop on a dime. According to a research article published by the University of Louisiana, this is the recently discovered New Guinea Paedophryne amauensis, the world's new smallest vertebrate. Which -- come on -- show a little backbone, will ya? Haha, that was ... / Continue →
