There's something oh-so-soothing about baby animals. Tiny paws, oversized eyes, and ears they are yet to grow into. They wobble when they walk, squeak when they're supposed to roar, and stare at the world with eyes so big they look like they could pop at any moment.
Animal babies are Mother Nature's way of telling us that pockets of joy do still exist. Even if they're sometimes wrapped in feathers, fur, or the occasional layer of mud.
These teeny-weeny floofballs have the ability to melt even the iciest of human hearts. It's a phenomenon backed up by science. Research shows that looking at adorable, helpless creatures triggers our nurturing instincts and gives our brains a boost of feel-good chemicals. Instant emotional therapy that could result in a trip to the local shelter to adopt one or four baby animals that you never knew you needed.
If you're having a rough day, prepare for an emotional reset. Bored Panda has gathered the most ridiculously cute baby animal pics for you to stare at when everything gets too much. So sit back, relax, keep scrolling, and feel the tension slowly start to melt away.

A Baby Fox Showed Up To Say Hi At My Grandmother's House
Moo Moo Everyone
Correct! Most Highland cows are darker shades of tan/caramel, but there are absolutely "white"/cream-colored ones as well :)
Load More Replies...To think there are people out there looking at this adorable little baby while licking their chops. Shame on you!
You might know that the biggest animal on earth is the blue whale. But what do you think the tiniest is? Maybe an ant? Or a flea? Apparently, it's neither of those. According to experts, the world's most minute creatures are myxozoans.
"All of us at some point in our life cycle have tiny stages, but when we're mature, we're complex multicellular animals," explains Beth Okamura, a professor at the Natural History Museum in London. "That's not the case for Myxozoa. When they mature, they're still single cells."

Load More Replies...According to the University of Hawaii, myxozoans can be up to 100 times smaller than a grain of sand. Or as small as 0.02 millimeters (20 micrometers) across as adults.
And if you're wondering what exactly they are, Science Direct defines them as aquatic parasitic animals, adding that they were probably derived from jellyfish.
"With 2,402 species described, many have a two-host lifecycle, involving a fish and an annelid worm or bryozoan," reads the site. "For example, Ceratomyxa shasta is a virulent myxosporean parasite of salmon and trout in the Pacific Northwest."

This Duck Used To Come To My Porch For Food. Recently, She Brought Her Babies. I've Been Watching Them Grow Up
First Family Photo - Santa Barbara Zoo
He was 6 feet at birth. His dad (on the right) is a little over 16 feet tall!
Okamura says that most myxozoan species produce infectious waterborne spores. "Cells from these spores invade and develop inside both vertebrate hosts, such as fish, and invertebrate hosts, like annelid worms," explains the expert.
Some myxozoans infect the gallbladders of Amazon fish and "grow" into worm-like creatures with unicellular bodies, adds the sciencedirect.com site. A few can cause diseases in their hosts, but mostly these tiny animals are harmless.
Baby Skunk Fell Asleep In My Hand Yesterday As I Returned It To Its Burrow
Not a pet. My son found it in the driveway. I’ve seen its mother on the hill above my house, always in the same spot. Figured it was where they lived, and I was right; there was another baby sleeping outside a hole in the ground. It ran into it when I approached, so I set its sibling down next to where it was sleeping. It ran inside.

In terms of mammals, the prize for the tiniest apparently goes to both the Etruscan shrews and bumblebee bats. Bumblebee bats grow to a length of around 1.1 to 1.3 inches and have a wingspan of around 6 inches, while the shrews can reach a mighty 2 inches long.

Baby Pandas
In my life time the situation has gone from it being very difficult to get pandas to breed in captivity to China having a surfeit of baby pandas without ever there being evidence of a mother. I presume they are being produced by A.I. (the old fashioned sort) or IVF? Or even cloning. And then all removed from their mothers to be raised in groups, presumably for the attention it gets? It makes me very uncomfortable. I know something isn't right.
No mystery to it. Sustained captive breeding with a large seed population. They often have twins but only one would live so they leave one with mum and raise the other by hand. Pandas cost around £1 million to rent per year per couple for a 10 year contract and any babies go back to China too. They have been massive moneyspinners for China. Better land management has allowed the wild population to increase aa well. Sadly not all Chinese animals are aa well treated

I, of course, in my infinite intelligence, named her Snowball XD We let her roam the (fenced) backyard during the day, and, well, my city's central park is across the street from our house XD And back in those days, vets didn't spay/neuter animals other than cats/dogs. So, tl;dr my white rabbit had a litter of kits XD There were only three, and one was stillborn, sadly. The other two were female; one was black with white markings on her muzzle, and the other was brown with white markings on her paws. Continuing my clever naming trend, I named them Muzzle and Paws XD I posthumously named the stillborn baby Stardust. My mom didn't want any more animals in the house, so a family friend adopted Muzzle, and a cousin adopted Paws. I still, to this day, internally cringe when I think about what I named them all XD I mean, I WAS 6, but still! XD

Javelina Baby
We’re still getting javelina babies (also called “reds”) this time of year. If separated from their mothers and the herd, it can be touch-and-go for a few weeks because they’re pretty sensitive to the cold. For these adorable (but feisty!) babes, a heat source is a must for survival. Depending on their age at arrival, we offer a warm incubator, ceramic heat lamps, heating pads, or heated mats in their enclosures until they’re several months old and ready for life with a new herd. Oh, and they all get a cuddle buddy!

This is normal behavior for deer and their young. The momma deer leaves her baby in tall grass while she goes and finds food and water. The mom will come back to the fawn several times a day to nurse it. But, for the most part, she leaves it alone to hide because fawns are born without a scent, therefore predators can't track down a fawn by smell and the mom wants to leave as little scent as possible near her baby. Also, fawns are born with spots to help them blend in to their surroundings.

Hognose snakes are drama queens. They're indigenous where I grew up (southern Arizona desert) and when they feel threatened they flip onto their back and play dead.

Why Do These Babies Look Nothing Like Their Mothers
Because cats don't reproduce by parthenogenesis XD Dad was involved in kitten creation (possibly multiple dads; females in estrus often mate with several males, and kittens within the same litter can have different fathers!) I know OP is probably being sarcastic/joking, but... yeah XD Also, kittens are often born lighter-colored (especially colorpoint kittens) and will develop a darker coat as they age.
Their points, if they have them, will also darken with age and the points are also temperature dependent. The cooler it is, the darker the points. Did you know there are fancy mice that also have "Siamese" points? There can be Siamese and Himalayan mice with dark chocolate and blue points and they also darken with age and temperature.
