Animals
can be beautiful or adorable no matter whether their color, size, species or
length of hair. But, as far as furry mammals go, the fuzziest of them
definitely have an edge when it comes to cuteness.
Of
course, only some of the animals on this list are naturally this fluffy – many
have been bred especially for this purpose. The Angora rabbit, bred for its
wool, is one such species – rabbits this fluffy do not occur anywhere in the
wild. Others on this list, like the fox or Chow Chow, are naturally fluffy.
They get even fluffier in the winter, when their hair lengthens into a thicker
winter coat. Some theories hold that, in finding an animal cute, we are
actually seeing characteristics that we look for in our own children. We find
large eyes, round heads and short snouts adorable in animals because we
appreciate them in healthy infants as well. The fluffier an animal is, the more
its sharper features are hidden and the more it looks like a chubby toddler.
What
do you think – does that make sense to you?
