According to Etsy seller GettingWeddy, who’s shifting these things for $20 a pop (but only has a few left. Aw)

As part of my job, I’m constantly having to get rid of old computer hardware that’s either broken or out of date. I usually put it all on a pallet and wait for our local e-waste recycling day, so I can dispose of it properly. I was packing up a box of computer mice one day when I realized that a mouse was about the same size as the belt buckle I had been wearing! I thought this would be a fun and fashionable way to upcycle those old mice!

No it wouldn’t.

A two-month old Lesser Malay Mouse Deer (officially the world’s smallest deer with a rodent in its name) was born this summer at Paignton Zoo in Devon.

He’ll eventually grow to a maximum length of 55cm. Which is small, but not so small that if he scuttled out from behind a packet of Frosties while you were filling the kettle late one night you wouldn’t literally shit yourself.
