25 times pets from all over the world beat the summer heat in clever and cute ways

In the past few years, global warming has really taken a toll on climate change. Many countries in the northern hemisphere have had to endure extreme heat waves, which resulted in people as well as animals falling sick. While humans can hide in their homes, turn on the AC, or take a refreshing sip from their favorite cold drink, animals do not have many options to escape the heat. While house pets might get some relief thanks to their owners, the ones out there in the wild really struggled to survive the heatwave in recent years. However, some found creative ways to beat the heat both with and without the help of humans.

We have collected a bunch of pictures from the internet where you can see our furry friends attempting to survive the extreme heat in clever and cute ways, ranging from licking ice cubes to jumping into the pools of strangers.
