Animals often have instincts and senses more impressive than ours. They can see farther, smell better, and individual animals can also run faster, jump higher, and basically do everything better than us. But if there's one thing that unites all adorable animals and humans, it's the fact that animals, just like us, aren't immune to looking ridiculous every once in a while.
From silly animals stumbling and slipping to hilariously trying to eat more than fits and other epic fails - we've gathered all the proof there is to show that even if these cute animals are way better at some things than us, they're still very capable of amusing us with their mishaps.
Check out this list of animal fails, compiled by Bored Panda, to see what we mean. Don't forget to vote for these hilarious photos!

She Never Thought The Toilet Paper Roll Would Fight Back
Chelsea Mueller 8 years ago
NEVER let your ferret do this. Once they exhale, there is no room to expand their lungs again and they can suffocate if you don't get them out quick enough. This photo worries me every time I see it.

Man, ferrets *love* finding anything they can squeeze into. Their need to squish into tiny spaces sometimes outweighs their survival instinct, so you do have to be careful. My ferret once got stuck in a metal coffee thermos. She found her way out but i was terrified!

If the person/animal is ok (and this one IS) it's totally legit to laugh first, THEN help! :D

Oh my gosh! I have two ferrets and one of them LOVES doing this and never learns, she even tries to convince her sister to try!

I'm not saying this wasn't done to the ferret by some horrible human, it's pretty likely after all. However, I saw a programme on TV where an electrician used a ferret to get cables run through tiny spaces. I don't approve of the idea personally but it was remarkable how small a gap the ferret could get through. Poor little things.

Ferrets were trained to run wiring through the church for the wedding of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.

Shame that's cruel. How long was it in that roll for. Until it's owner took him out?

Not funny...looks like the ferret is suffocating. It's very stupid and does not look like it did it of its own accord. (Down vote).

Is that animal even living? It looks in distress. This wasn't the best photo to post I don't think. If this thing was OK afterwards you should say so.

It's just a toilet paper roll. Ferrets tend to get themselves into - and out of - some dumb s**t. He'll be fine once his pride recovers

#40 - the elephant holding its own tail with the trunk, is actually the saddest thing. She's doing that to make herself feel less alone, as if she's holding onto someone else. Elephants are very social, but she is all alone at that place. That's the real story behind that sad photo.

Wish I could add mine. I have a photo of 2 of our saltwater fish who went after the same piece of food. The porcupine puffer got there first, then the grouper's mouth closed around its head, so it inflated. They stayed stuck like that for at least 15 minutes before the grouper was able to shake the puffer loose. Both fish were fine afterward, although the puffer was gasping for a few minutes.

Some of these just aren't funny. Animals getting stuck or being in pain, how is that funny?
