There's a fox at my parents' house who discovered that their porch furniture is more comfortable than sleeping on the ground. 😁 Fox-68acf5...471d1f.jpg
Are you really cross that you can't grow cactus? You sound a bit 'prickly'!

Scientists estimate that there are approximately 7.8 million animal species on the planet. So while your go-to response to “What’s your favorite animal?” might be, “Dog, of course!” It’s likely that there are millions of animals out there that you’ve never even heard of! From birds hanging out high in the mountaintops to monkeys playing in the rain forest, we are lucky to share the Earth with so many amazing creatures.
While it’s clear from this list that humans often find animals’ behavior amusing, it’s possible that they find their own behavior pretty entertaining at times too. The BBC published a piece in 2024 discussing certain species that seem to have evolved to have a sense of humor. For example, one study found that apes have been observed teasing one another and exhibiting behavior similar to how human children play.
"Stay wild, brothers, lest you find yourselves wearing these ignoble hats!"
If my beloved, loyal bodyguard could talk, he would be saying to me: "Regrets? Yeah! I have a few Master, but the good food, belly rubs, the snacks, the walkies, the rides I take with you and Mum in your cars or your Sportbikes makes me...er, um..what we talking about it?"
Reminds me of the pup in the sleeper after the vet so incision wouldn't get lapped. The attitude on the right is awesome!
We're an embarrassment and we love chaos, but we're adorable! Right, pandas? 😊
We often talk about cats being liquid, but what about pandas??? How did they even survive until now
I firmly believe that if they hadn't suckered humans into believing that they're cute and cuddly (in real life, not just in pictures) so humans would start conservation efforts, they would have died out by now.

Even dogs might have senses of humor, which you might already know if you’ve had plenty of furry friends over the years. In fact, Charles Darwin proposed this idea in The Descent of Man when he wrote about how they play.
“If a bit of stick or other such object be thrown to one, he will often carry it away for a short distance; and then squatting down with it on the ground close before him, will wait until his master comes quite close to take it away,” Darwin explained. “The dog will then seize it and rush away in triumph, repeating the same maneuver, and evidently enjoying the practical joke."
You know? Here in England when a child is badly behaved, Mum's say: "Your Father will be very cross with you when he gets home" Well, I don't think in Australia is different ☺
Our dog could resist that, no problem. (He once saved one of our cats from a fox, and the cat was *SO* p!ssed off that he owed the dog one...)

Would you believe that rats enjoy a good laugh as well? Apparently, Jeffrey Burgdorf, research associate professor at Northwestern University, has observed that rats seem to let out a high-pitched squeak, which sounds quite similar to a giggle, when they’re tickled. They even come back again and again to get more tickles, which can be used as reward for playing hide and seek. Burgdorf even says that the rats he works with are the most attentive when they’re letting out “giggles.”
I *swear* the right picture looks like someone put a wolf head on a bird.
If you crossed a Tibetan fox with a maned wolf, you might get a normal looking animal.
That animal has been judging everything for aeons, and its name just has to be Mike
I really feel certain that if you ran an animal sanctuary and had this particular fox in it, labeled as a Tibetan Fox that you would have to explain to visitors over and over that it’s supposed to look like that, it isn’t a fox crossed with something, and yes, you’re sure, all while it sat there with its permanently doubtful expression that you would just start telling people that it’s whatever there saying it is. Inter species breeding between a mountain lion and a coyote? Absolutely! That it’s actually a marsupial and is called the Fuzzquat in Australia? Sounds about right!
There’s no doubt that animals look at humans from time to time and wonder what the heck we’re up to. I’m sure my cat doesn’t understand why I have to sit at a computer for 8 hours a day while I work from home, and he has no idea why I find it so frustrating when he knocks my decorations off the shelves. But if you’re interested in some other amusing behaviors animals have exhibited, Live Science has compiled a wild list of strange things animals have been caught doing.
It all started when someone threw out a copy of Tolkien, and the trash pandas learned about the Riders of Rohan.
Look at that cute boopable nose, look at that cute lil face. Look at those murder mittens!
Are yer sure he's not trying to convince her to buy an extended car warranty?
I wanted to get my life together, but my heart had otter plans.
Yikes! Looks like llama wants to have a very few, not nice words, with you! I'm telling ya! Road rage is getting out of control these days
One entertaining thing that dolphins have been observed doing is “raiding crab pots.” In Western Australia, fishermen noticed that the fish they used as bait to lure in crabs was being snatched by dolphins before they could catch anything. And when the fishers tried to hide the bait underneath the pots, dolphins would simply flip them over. Boxes didn’t work either, as the dolphins figured out how to break into them. Eventually, the fishers managed to come up with a dolphin-proof design, but it wasn't easy!

My SIL is Jewish, so instead of the Elf I got my niece and nephew the Mensch on a Bench. 😁 Mensch-68a...4ddc45.jpg
Elf on a shelf, Mensch on and bench and if you have a Barbie, "Wh*re in a drawer (LMAO).
Load More Replies...Land animals can be just as amusing as sea creatures, though. Apparently, an elephant at the Berlin Zoo has managed to learn how to peel bananas without any opposable thumbs. She’s also smart enough to know which ones taste best, as keepers at the zoo noted that she’ll only eat green and yellow bananas, while completely rejecting brown ones. I mean, everybody knows that those are best for banana bread, which she, presumably, can’t make herself.
Uniting the arguing pair by giving them a common enemy. It could work.
How do I know how that shoe tastes just by looking at the picture?
Back to the topic of marine life, whales are certainly one of the most fascinating creatures on the planet. And one creative thing that humpback whales do is called “kelping.” This is when the massive creatures scrub their bodies with seaweed, which apparently exfoliates their skin and might even be used to remove parasites. But the whales seem to enjoy the treatment as well, which can be done as a social event or solo. It’s the closest thing they can get to a trip to the spa!
At least it wasn’t an Android. (nothing against android users)
This checks out! Only with me, it's a barrel of Utz's cheese balls! A BIG barrel!

I wonder how that opinion would change if the bear was munching on fauna, instead of flora.
Depends on the person the bear got ahold of. Some people I would be very happy for the bear even though eating politicians probable wouldn't be healthy for it to eat.

Bring a cat -- bears are terrified of them! Have never seen a photo of a bear and a cat where the bear was't bolting away.
