    Mine is probably wild boars. We need an antonym for “glow up.”

    Guinea pig babies are pretty damn adorable, but so are adult guinea pigs. I don’t know how to calculate the difference in cuteness.

    I’ll bring the answer to the opposite question: owls (particularly Megascops, Bubo and Athene genera) are much cuter as adults. The owlets lack the plumage that makes the owls more embodied.

      I find that most take a few years to stop being pretty gross, personally.

      No, infant humans are cute. Babies are pretty gross and need constant cleaning to not be covered in all sorts of smelly, icky bodily fluids.

        Parent here. Can confirm. Newborns are gross, babies are messy, but once they are past that they gradually get better. 5yo+ can be pretty awesome.

      In this theme: rats.
      Rats are like baby ferrets, but less aggressive hehe
      ( i know ferrets are generally not aggressive but my experience with them is the opposite… )

      When I was four or five I went to the zoo with school, when we were being told about Canadian Geese my teacher asked where they were from. Canadian Geese have come up one time too many today for me not to tell that story.

      That is a cute picture, but also this is a pygmy hippo, which are just cute hippos. It’s like saying “baby horses are the cutest animals!” And posting a baby pony as proof

        I grew up with a pet alligator, she got to around 5ft. Spent a good portion of her life sleeping under my bed and she’d walk herself to the tub when she wanted a swim. They’re cute as the dickens and she actually had an amazing temperment.

        Or several kinds of rodent pups. Or marsupial joeys.

        If it comes hair/featherless it’s probably not our jam. Which is ironic, considering we’re pretty hairless.
