On July 31st, the Brights Zoo in Tennessee welcomed a new baby giraffe to the world. Except, there was an immediate problem. Unlike just about every giraffe ever, the baby was missing its specie's signature brown and white spots, leaving many to wonder...

It was a funny story, and one that proves how funny our world can be. Here are 19 other photos from strange and striking happenings on planet Earth.
