Many people think that the cutest animals are cats. Cute animals live on all continents, and to choose from all this variety of the most-most is not such an easy task.
But still try to deal with it, so who are they the most, the cutest?
Fifth place - sugar marsupial flying squirrel
One of the cutest creatures on our planet is a sugar, or, as it is also called, a dwarf marsupial flying squirrel. You can meet the flying squirrel on the Australian continent, in New Guinea and on some nearby islands. A miniature animal weighs no more than 170 grams, and the length of the body with the tail does not exceed 21 cm, and the tail accounts for at least half of the entire length. The females have a bag on their stomachs in which they carry their cute tiny babies.
The appearance of the sugar flying squirrel is very touching - a pointed bright pink nose, large round eyes, a soft ash-beige coat and a long fluffy tail. As the name implies, this baby is a big sweet tooth, she loves to feast on sweet nectar and juicy fruits, though she can diversify her diet with more prosaic protein foods, eating insects and larvae.
In addition to charming appearance, this sweet tooth has other features. Sugar marsupial flying squirrel can fly. Special membranes that stretch from the forelegs to the hind legs help the squirrel soar from tree to tree, covering a distance of 50 meters! And for such a baby this is a very decent result. This animal is not at all afraid of people and quickly gets used to hands.If desired, it can be kept at home, but so that the animal does not yearn, it is better to start several at once, since in nature they live in groups.
Fourth place - koala
The Australian continent is home to another very cute marsupial animal. Koala resembles a teddy bear that someone planted on a branch, and so forgot to pick it up. These slow and clumsy creatures spend almost their entire lives on trees, eating leaves melancholy. The koala has a completely toy-like appearance - a large head with rounded ears, a large black nose, bead eyes, a well-fed body and thick gray hair. The weight of the koala ranges from 5 to 14 kg.
These "plush" animals sleep during the day, sitting comfortably on a comfortable branch, and slowly climb trees at night in search of the most delicious eucalyptus leaves and shoots. Koalas do not eat anything else, and yet they hardly drink water. Animals get all the necessary moisture from leaves and dew on the leaves, and only during the illness and during the drought, the koala can drink water.
From a distance, a koala can be mistaken for a cute soft toy, because the animal can remain motionless for 18 hours in a row. Despite the inherent slowness, koalas swim well, easily jump from tree to tree and are even able to escape in case of danger.
Third place - Fenech
The next charming animal lives in Africa. Fenech is a small and very cute fox. The length of her body is about 30 cm, the tail has the same size, and the chanterelle weighs only one and a half kilograms.Disproportionately large ears give a special charm to Fenech. But such ears are not needed for the chanterelle for beauty, and not only in order to hear better. The secret is that big ears save Fenech from overheating, which is very important in the hot African desert. To save from the heat, this cute fox has other devices, for example, the soles of the legs are covered with wool, so the animal runs freely on the hot sand.
Feneki live in large families. The male and female dig a comfortable hole with many moves and exits and live there with their kids, and older brothers and sisters help to raise them until they get their own families. The male also takes care of the offspring - while the mother looks after the cubs, they get food. These cute animals are omnivorous - they feed on meat, eggs, roots and fruits of plants. Amazing that Phoenix almost do not drink water, getting the necessary moisture from food.
Second Place - Dwarf Lory
The second place among the most-sweetest animals is occupied by the dwarf lory, which is also called the small fat lory. Small loris live in the southeastern part of Asia, belong to the order of primates and are considered semi-monkeys. They look very touching - they have a round head with small, barely noticeable ears, eyes are large and expressive, the length of a well-fed little body does not exceed 21 cm. When you look at the little lory, you get the impression that he is surprised, embarrassed and a little sad - you really want him to regret it.
Dwarf loris spend almost their entire lives on trees.They eat juicy fruits, sweet nectar and flowers, like bird eggs, and also catch various insects. Surprisingly, these little half-monkeys can eat poisonous caterpillars and beetles without harm to their health.
Usually one cub is born in a female, but it also happens that twins are also born. The male does not help to raise offspring, and the female has to take care of the babies herself. For the first month and a half, she constantly wears a cub on her chest, and he holds on tightly to her mother’s hair.
Small thick loris take root well in apartments, but only if suitable conditions are created. Such cute pets will delight their owners every day.
The cutest animal in the world
