While folks in Buffalo, New York, are asking for an end to the snow already, animals around the world are begging for more.
Wild or domestic, most critters go crazy when their paws get ankle-deep in the winter precipitation. Some – such as tigers, red pandas and seals – are built for frolicking in the snow, but even those you'd think might fear the cold see snow as a winter wonderland waiting to be explored, as evidenced here.
