ANIMALS THAT MOTHER NATURE WAS N0T SYMPATHETIC TO

Added on: 26th Oct 2015

 

MUSK DEER

Musk deer

Also known as a sabre-toothed deer, the musk deer looks like a

cross between a deer and a big cat. Native to the mountains and

forests of southern Asia, these mammals are easily recognizable by

their exposed enlarged upper canines used in mating disputes.

 

 

HONDURAN WHITE BAT

Honduran white bat

If you think a bat cannot be cute and fluffy, you have probably never

seen the Honduran white bat. With its snow white fur and yellow

nose and ears, this tiny mammal looks like a cross between a mouse

and a marshmallow.

 

 

BEARDED SAKI

Bearded saki

After the proboscis monkey and the Celebes crested macaque, here

comes the most ridiculously looking monkey ever. A bearded

monkey is funny enough as it is but the bearded saki, a small primate

native to South America, has – apart from the heavy beard – a very

unusually shaped head, strikingly resembling a human butt.

 

 

MANTIS SHRIMP

Mantis shrimp

Known for its enormously powerful claws, the mantis shrimp is an

otherworldly-looking marine crustacean. Its weird body shape, striking

coloration and giant, insect-like eyes make the mantis shrimp one of the

weirdest animals living on the sea floor.

 

 

BIRD'S DROPPING SPIDER

Bird dropping spider

For many animal species, the ability of camouflage is vital. Some

animals can mimic grass, others can look like tree barks, etc. And what

does the bird dropping spider mimic? Yes, you are right. This little

Australian spider pretends to be a bird´s excrement because

predators don’t eat faeces.

 

 

HOODED SEAL

Hooded seal

Found only in North Atlantic, the hooded seal is a large, typically

silver-grey seal known for its uniquely elastic red nasal cavity also

referred to as the hood. Males use the hood to create bizarre acoustic

signals which they produce by shaking their heads.

 

 

CHRISTMAS TREE WORM

Christmas tree worm

If you thought the only thing missing here was an animal that looks

like a Christmas tree, well here it is. Scientifically known as

Spirobranchus Giganteus, the Christmas tree worm, is a colourful

tube-building polychaete worm distributed throughout the world’s

tropical oceans.

 

 

PLATYPUS

Platypus

When it comes to crossing different animal species, nothing

beats the platypus. This egg-laying, duck-billed, beaver-tailed,

 otter-footed mammal once baffled naturalists so much that some

of them even thought this animal was a hoax.
