Everyone loves animals (I think), but what are your personal favorites? List as many as you want!

#1

I would think that was kind of obvious for me.

2nd are dogs & cats.
3rd are anything considered conventionally "ugly"
4th Everything else.

Show me an animal and I want to hug it (it was nearly problematic when I met a Lachesis AKA bushmaster, and downright chaos when I saw the Komodo Dragons).

    I love cats. But I also think owls are really cool. And whale sharks. And sea otters. And bats. And frogs. And moths. And bunnies.

    My favorites are bizarrely specific (but I took Zoology class, so...)

    American false vampire bat (fun fact, they're big enough to kill and eat a parrot)
    Pesquet's parrot
    Hammerhead bat
    Honduran white bat (they look like little cotton balls)
    Sea otter
    Domestic hedgehog
    Turkey vulture (they're so ugly, they're cute)
    North American possum (I found an old dying possum in my garage once. It was so sad! Also much bigger than I expected)
    American crow
    Rosy maple moth (very cute and fuzzy!)
    Blue morpho butterfly (I love all butterflies, but this one is especially pretty)

    Have you been to Komodo or Rinca Island to meet the dragons? If not, I strongly recommend. They are amazing!

    Let's throw prairie dogs and meerkats out there too.

    Cats because they have the traits of everything I dislike in humans but they're adorable doing it.

    Dogs just because of the way they adore their humans.

    Fox, wolf, squirrel and deer for no specific reason. I'm also fond of cardinals and crows.

    Cats. I used to have pirhana but they are very hard to acquire now. I don't have any other favorite animals; I like all of 'em.

    Emus. There were several at the rescue I volunteered for. Clyde was my buddy.

    YES! I have a stuffed hedgehog named Watson (named because Martin Freeman played Watson on BBC Sherlock and he was compared to a hedgehog)

    Long-snooted dogs. And sloths, meerkats, geckos and flamingos always make me smile
