Animals you find cute but nobody else does.

Spoiler: For me, one of my favourites is Royal (or Ball) Python

Oh my god.

I need to have that python, right now! I will hug it and pet it all day long. I will name him White Death.

According to the link I got her from, her name is Lucy, but that's all I know, it didn't say her age or anything specific but she doesn't look that old, I'd say a few years at most.

Is seems albino, but the eyes seem ruby red. I'd love a snake like that, but it look expensive to the max.

Over here in the U.K. albino royal pythons usually go for about £500 to £600. I think that one in particular would be a lot more, though, since it seems to be a very rare morph. Most albino royals have cream and pale-yellow markings on them, I have no idea how the breeder managed to get those wonderful eyes, but I think the pure-white morph on her was achieved by breeding albinos with more albinos.

So, I don't think they're very common so you'd obviously either have to breed it out yourself or shop around and pay through the nose to get something like that. Either way, it's going to cost a hell of a lot.

"Lucy" is short for Leucistic, that one specifically is Black-Eyed Leucistic aka Black-Eyed Lucy.
Breeding two "Fire" Ball Pythons will produce one, or you can get Blue-Eyed ones by breeding two "Mojave" Balls together.

Last I checked they're still a few thousand dollars, but the price comes down every year.

The Axolotl. Look how happy it looks!

IT'S A REAL LIFE POKEMON!!! Who couldn't find that hilariously cute?

actually, alot of the animals on this list I find kinda cute in their own funny/sweet way. Even the spider which I didn't think would ever happen.

Can I turn the question around?

I can't stand dogs.

Thanks, I already checked, please see page 2 of this forum.

Admittedly, I should've checked before I did my mindless guess work, but still. When you say "a few thousand" how much is that? Because on the current UK market they go for £5000.

Are they cheaper there?

Hey! It's Gummy!

... Holy crap you're right.


OT: These guys:

Bumblebees, I guess. Unless a lot of people do find these cute and I just never bothered to ask.

They're awesome. And surprisingly non-aggressive. We don't get them here in Australia (at least, I don't think we do. Feel free to correct me on that, but I've never seen them here), but I remember seeing them in New Zealand when my family and I still lived there.

They're so passive, you can actually pet them. First time you pet them, they'd lift up a leg and wave it at you, being like "Oi. Stop poking me." So, of course, you'd do it again. This time they'd raise 2 legs on one side at you.
Repeat until they finally accidentally raise all the legs on one side, and roll over (they wouldn't be hurt in any way, mind. They get up again almost immediately).
So. Cute.
There is not another bee you can do this to, and still not get stung.
Just for the record, I'm not saying to try it. It was my mum who always did it to show us, just in case me and my siblings (still quite young at this point, about 12+ years ago) did it wrong.

I am totally with you. Both on the hating of dogs and the needing of wombats.

Awesome! I'm not alone.

Dogs are always annoying in games too.

Hehe. They're a big (well, bigger compared to most bees) fuzzy bee you can pet without getting stung. I'd be surprised if it didn't make them more adorable.

Actually, squid look pretty cute albeit weird.

Wait, there are people who don't think wombats are cute? Blashphemy!

All Australian marsupials are cute!

 

[similar.squirrel]

I never thought the day would come when I looked at a snake and felt anything other than fear/marvel. Terrified of the things, for some reason. But that python looks lovely.
The spider is also endearingly goofy-looking.

I love owls and moths. Neither are generally considered to be typically 'cute'.

This is really just for fun, everyone likes the big favourites like lions, tigers, sharks and suchlike. The ones that have been well-documented over the years. But are there any of the slightly obscure species that you've got a fondness for that everyone else either hasn't heard of or are completely disgusted by?

Spoiler: For me, one of my favourites is Royal (or Ball) Python

There's something about its distinctive head and its rather chunky body that I find really adorable. They're also very curious and docile creatures that don't mind being handled.

Spoiler: Another is the Jumping Spider

I dunno, it must be the big eyes and the stubby legs that get me. It's also probably something to do with the fact that I have absolutely no fear of spiders.

that wasn't a very definitive royal pic. Couldn't you have got a normal or an anerythristic? Anyway, that's not true. Royals are better-loved than you seem to think. Everybody loves my Monty.
