"Dog-kangaroos" turn heads in the Philippines

Dog lovers, meet Cute and Bambi, who have been dubbed "dog-kangaroos" by those who have encountered the pair in Quezon City, Philippines.

Cute and Bambi were apparently both born with only their two rear legs and are the pets of Lope Tulipas, a Quezon City street vendor. Many passersby are understandably taken by the pair -- some have even offered to buy them, but Tulipas has turned down all offers.
