50 Hard To Explain But Impossible Not To Love Animal Pics, As Shared By This IG Page (New Pics)
When your friend walks out of the toilet with his leather pants hanging on his knees and his crotch covered in white powder and lotion, he can at least explain that he couldn't pull them back up his sweaty legs and used everything he found in the cupboards in the last futile attempt to do so.
But when you witness an animal end up in a confusing predicament, it usually raises more questions than provides answers. After all, they don't speak human and can't tell you what happened. At least, not to my knowledge. And there's an Instagram account that perfectly highlights this, let's call it, difference.
It's called 'Doggo Taxi' and it shares random and oftentimes nonsensical animal pictures without providing any context. A cat judging a crayon drawing of itself? Sure. A dog refusing to give up the swings for a kid? You bet. Continue scrolling to check out its latest posts, and for more hilariously ridiculous situations, fire up our earlier publications on 'Doggo Taxi' here and here.

This pic requires no explanation - I'd be waaay more inclined to visit the dentist if I knew a doggo was gonna snuggle on me! 🖤💜💛🧡
Thankfully with my doulingo classes I know that says therapy dog. Lol
I'm scared of the dentist too, I want a pupper to hold while I'm there ... the fact that I'm a 46 yr old mom is completely irrelevant.
Ooh what awesome. I know dogs these days are used for their awesomeness for all kind of circumstances. Helping people with all kinds of disabilities. But I could have used this as a child. I didn't mind a doctor having to set anesthetic, him cutting barbed wire from my upper thigh and him stitching me up. I didn't mind didn't care and wanted to watch what he was doing. But oh boy the dentist I gave that man a hard time. I even threatened my dentist once when I was like 10y. He wanted to pull a tooth (which was already loose) without Anesthetics. I wasn't having that so I threatened him to hit him if he would proceed. Not my best plan but it worked. Oh I was in trouble that evening. My mom and dad both had to work that day so I went to the dentist alone. Oh btw they don't use Nitrous Oxide in the country were I live. Not the best plan my parents had, sending me to the dentist alone. Im 51 now and still dislike the dentist very much Such a dog as support would have made a big difference
I feel like every cat owner has considered this and/or tried it, and either didn’t do it, or failed miserably 😂 this person is got luckyy
As amusing as these pictures are, if you want to take one of your own pet, there are some things you need to keep in mind if you want it to turn out a bit better.
Award-winning pet photographer Alexandra Robins, who is based in Wiltshire, United Kingdom, told Bored Panda that everything starts with your energy.
"Having your pet model looking their best, happy, and engaging with the camera really makes for a great photo. I always ask clients to make sure their pet is groomed and ready to shine in their photos. Giving them their favorite treats, playing with toys, and giving your pet affection will help keep them waggy-tailed and those ears pricked up," she said.
Ahhhhhhhhh I want this in my car! Honestly, I wonder how much it cost to actually do that?? Or was it custom done at the factory when they ordered the rig?
a lot of big trucks have this so the driver can look out the door before opening it.
Load More Replies...Hmm. I'm thinking that hummingbird is feeling ill, as I don't think it's in their nature to just sit there while a potential predator sniffs them over.
Or cold? Or a juvenile? Juveniles have some derpy ways.
Load More Replies...Robins said that being mindful of your background and planning where you will take your pet portraits will make a huge difference to your photos.
"Cluttered and overly busy backgrounds will distract the viewer from your pet and will likely ruin what could have been a really wonderful photo all around."
"Keep locations simple, tidy, and well-lit. You could also take it a step further and seek out beautiful nature spots or picturesque cityscapes for your pet portrait photos. That being said, sometimes if the content is really great, whether it's a clever use of props, the pose, or expression, it can surpass a messy background! Sometimes it's just important to capture the moment before it passes," the photographer explained.
This is amazing. They live in a trailer and still make sure their kitty gets a patio (catio) so it can enjoy watching nature as all cats do. They clearly love and care for their kitty very much.
I can't like this one enough. Rv owners are so creative with their space.
You can tell they love their cat, as they made a mini catio for the cutie☺️
I'm going to steal this idea, with a few modifications. All my storage areas are full. But I can McGyver some sort of collapsible catio that will store on top of the dog xpens.
Yup. Cats gonna cat regardless of species or size.
Load More Replies...and still I would be tempted to touch that stunning danger floofy belly ❤️
You would have a nice fluffy experience, a short experience. And the cat would have a snack.
Load More Replies...Seems it's nappy time for everyone at the zoo... i have also been part of nappy time at the zoo on warm and peaceful days.
It makes sense to me. The pom's riding the rocking horse and enjoying every minute of it.
I had kittens that did this, my baby used to whine about it and rock the rocking horse so they'd get off.
And we wonder why cats were worshiped as gods/feared as demons/companions of witches/lurved as the fuzzy faced cuddle monsters.
Load More Replies..."One of the biggest mistakes I see in the photos people have taken of their pets is when they are taking them from above and not from the pet's level," Robins added. "Although this can occasionally work, especially if the pet has eye contact with the camera, taking photos from different and lower angles will help you determine which might be the most flattering for your pet."
"Not being aware of the lighting is also a common one. Sometimes it results in uneven and harsh shadows across the pet's face or their eyes not being visible, which often spoils a lovely photo. Photograph your pet in soft, even lighting where possible."
"and this is me, if I were happy but you didn't get the right tuna, did you Linda?....so here we are"
He/she will surely purr to you, his/her mother I don't know exactly. :)
Load More Replies..."Now remember, we may not see anything. Leopards are notoriously hard to fi--oh."
Yessss they're finally leaving. Now where's that dog..My plan must not be interrupted...
However, even if you do your homework and put in the effort, that doesn't mean that your pet won't decide to troll you when you're holding the camera. These animals certainly appear to be doing it on purpose. Which begs the question, are humans really the only species that find humor in life?
The tricky part is that philosophers and psychologists have long struggled to come up with an exact definition of what constitutes humor in the first place.
They've presented numerous theories over the years, one of the most popular being the "incongruity theory" of humor. At its basic level, this theory states that humor arises when there's an inconsistency between what one expects to happen and what actually happens — and this includes comedic tools like puns, irony, and twists of fate.
According to this definition, it sounds like the vast majority of animals probably don't have a sense of humor, as they lack the cognitive abilities that would allow them to identify such inconsistencies.
Looks like the cat is tryna cop a feel though
Load More Replies...I got me a new bird.. doesn't meow like the last one, not even slightly catty either.
One of my favorite memories ever is coming home to my tuxedo cat sitting in the drawer the catnip was kept in. She’d torn the bag open, catnip was everywhere, her pupils were dilated wider than I’d ever seen, and her white chin was stained green. She sat there twitching for a moment, and then sprang out of the drawer and rocketed around the house. I think it was her best day ever!
I’m assuming catnip? I have an odd cat - he won’t go near the stuff
People, if you don't talk to your cat about drugs, then who will? Just say no to the 'nip...
Mirror, mirror of the lake, the tennis ball who did take? Mirror, mirror of the lake, when will I get my favorite steak?
One known exception is Koko, the famous western lowland gorilla who understood more than 1,000 American Sign Language signs and 2,000 spoken English words.
This clever primate was known not only to use language to humorous effect by playing with different meanings of the same word, but also to understand slapstick comedy — she reportedly signed the word "chase" after tying her trainer's shoelaces together and made laughing noises at her trainer's clumsiness.
But there are various issues with the incongruity theory of humor and related theories, including the fact that they fail to take into account that jokes with predictable punch lines can also be funny and that certain incongruous things aren't funny.
Furthermore, they also seem to evade the primary reasons why we laugh: being tickled by a friend or family member.
This echidna is high as a kite lol
Load More Replies...This reminds me of when my oldest daughter watched Marley and me - crying so hard she was blowing snot bubbles
NOBODY is getting married (or taking prom pics, what is this thing?) until I get pets
My kitten does that when he wakes up in the middle of his nap 🥰 it's soooo adorable! 😍
A few psychologists recently came up with a new theory. They propose that humor arises from the so-called benign violation or "something that threatens a person’s well-being, identity or normative belief structure but that simultaneously seems okay," they wrote in a paper about the theory.
Benign violation can explain why a number of things make us laugh, including being tickled: that is, tickling benignly invades someone's physical space.
You can't tickle yourself because that doesn't constitute a violation and complete strangers can't tickle you to the point of laughter because you won't perceive it as a benign act.
Following this line of thinking, various animals do, in fact, have "humor," if only they can be tickled.
Haha. The actor who plays five is amazing. Definitely my favorite part of the series. I love the looks he gives people.
Load More Replies...Alright everyone we are at 2 minutes in and no one has blinked.....yet
*party pooper mode on* I will never understand how people can drive like that... the thought of having a pet, no matter how well behaved, like this in the car makes me anxious 😬 Would use a box...
Thanks, I thought I was the only one being concerned by that after reading all the other comments.
Load More Replies...Awww, I love sun conures. They have such sassy and comical personalities for birds.
Thank you Loki!!!!!! My husband and I were admiring one at the store today but it wasn’t labeled. It was aggressively banging it’s empty food bowl at us so naturally we were concerned it was starving to death. Finally found the store manager who confirmed that Bebe is a glutton who harasses customers for food and had just been fed. Wish I had $1000 to save that baby 🦜

And upon reading those words, she gently extended the soft, snow-white plumage adorning her elegantly tapered wings and swiped right.
Load More Replies...Research shows us that our primate relatives — chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans — all produce laughter-like sounds when tickled (as well as when they're wrestling and play-chasing).
This also suggests that humor and our ability to laugh likely came from humans' and great apes' last common ancestor.
Additionally, another study discovered that chimpanzees can make silent "laugh faces" just like humans.
Dogs are also known to have a kind of panting laugh and play face that's suggestive of humor.
So who knows, maybe these animals are actually laughing at us? Or at least with us?
I feel that this is the origin picture of the wet owl picture earlier, lol.
Why would it hurt it? It's only being held while it's sleeps.
Load More Replies...That’s what I wondered. It seems more small than it’s possible to be. Like a newborn kitten wouldn’t be that fluffy right? Idk. It’s adorable, real or not. Maybe it’s a perma-kitten in actual kitten form.

I love them! Salamanders (and newts) are so cute! There is a species of salamander (I cannot recall the name, something with "red bellied" in it) that swims in a lake in the outskirts of my city and it is both cool and a little spooky to swim that close to a salamander. They have not come very close to me yet, but I have a feeling they would be much more afraid of me than I am of them.

Load More Replies...When my baby twins became mobile, their toddler brother asked me to put in the playpen so they wouldn't bug him. He'd spend hours in there with his toys and books and his brothers used to press their noses against the mesh and watch him. This picture reminds me of that.
I was legit wondering if this was ever done with human babies. 😊
Load More Replies...Look at that doggie's sweet smile! It's like a mama looking at her baby... or he's happy his crate is occupied and he can roam around as he pleases!

Butterflies will drink the tears, sweat and even blood of animals wherever they can find it, even dead ones. They will even drink water from mud puddles for the nutrients. Hence the name mud puddling.

Load More Replies...Hey guys, the heck with the Iditarod---check out that French poodle on the sidewalk!
Not cool. Sled dogs are notoriously abused, neglected, and killed. An animal used for entertainment is a commodity and it's value is as good as its output. I'm sure you can put two and two together to realize what happens when they lose their value. This is wrong.
Someone who didn't care about their dogs wouldn't make such a cool vehicle for them to ride in. This person obviously loves their dogs.

Interesting if freaky critters. Had one materialize on the handlebars of my bicycle once, no idea where it came from as I was at a major road junction with no greenery or anything near, at a loss as to what to do, I cycled as far as the next hedge I knew of, where it happily hopped off.
It's the end of a horse's snout stretched out over a wall. It has it's eyes closed and long mane hanging over it's face.

Some good guesses so far. Bear, mouth too small, whole animal kinda small Beaver, teeth too small and not yellow enough Capybara, possibly. Looks large enough Porcupine, again possible Just my thoughts on the guesses so far. Hope we find out or figure it out!
Edit regarding porcupine, wouldn't we see some quills towards the back?

It doesn't look like they have met yet! Yikes - where would they live???

Load More Replies...That's Komondor, a rare dog breed from Hungary. Or Puli, close related to Komondor
Thank you for the names! So I did a tiny bit of research. Both breeds NEED smart humans, they are a lot of work to keep in good condition.

I'd really like to see the original image of this cat. I have seen the distorted one so much, it's time for the real photo please.
Peacocks are so loud! My BFF had them on their farmette when we were growing up, and they'd fly up into the trees and scream at you for parking underneath them, and lemme tell ya - that'll wake you up much faster than any rooster!
He wants to ride his bicycle, he wants to ride his biiike. He wants to ride his bicycle, he wants to ride it where he liiiikes... 👩🎤
I hope so. If a pitcher plant can kill insects with the "goop" that is in the pitcher, I can't imagine that it would be great for the kitty. I also can't imagine a scenario where a domestic cat would be in a jungle in the first place, let alone climbing in a sticky and probably stinky plant. Cats don't like sticky or stinky things.
Load More Replies...The paws and the ears are a little too off for this to be a real scenario.
A flying projectile in a vehicle is funny? It'll be hilarious when he faceplants into the glove box.
HORRIBLE! This adorable little person needs to be safe in a REAL home not one that condones such behavior. Would they love to have the same thing happen to them? He or She is NOT a toy. Hope he survived this.
On the rebound this dog is probably going to get whiplash. = paralysis partial or full / extreme pain for the rest of it's life. THIS IS CRUELTY. There are probably laws against cruelty to animals in your country. If you see this rubbish, please report it to you local Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. -

Load More Replies...Against the law where I live. Utterly irresponsible: Unsafe for doggos, unsafe for other people as they would try and avoid or have dog crash on hood.
As in the owner of these dogs should have dodged becoming an irresponsible dog owner and kept the dogs in the cab of the truck (not that 6 dogs would fit, even in a four-door truck) or in dog carriers in the truck bed? Yes! I will stop commenting on this entry now, as it is making me to upset. *Yes, I get the Doge pun*
