Planet Earth has become home to so many living beings that it is simply impossible to list them. Nature endowed someone with intelligence, someone with strength and the ability to adapt to any conditions, someone with beauty or attractiveness, and someone with ugliness. Let's try in this article to consider the ugliest animals on our planet.
Photos of the ugliest animals
Blobfish
You can rightfully start our top parade with an amazing, unusual and even scary creature - a drop fish. The creature belongs to the family of marine bottom deep-sea fish Psychrolyutes. This fish, because of the strange appearance, is often called the ugliest creature of the deep sea. It is assumed that the drop fish lives at a depth of 700-1300 m near the coast of Tasmania and Australia, where today it is most often pulled to the surface by fishing nets. It should be said that this species is threatened with extinction today.
The ugliest animalsin the world, in the face of a fish-drop, can rightfully star in horror films without any directorial additives, so to speak "in its purest form." Its smooth head resembles a human face, it reaches no more than 30 cm in length. On the head there is a process that looks like a nose, on the sides of which there are two eyes. The sadness of the expression "face" is given by the fact that the interorbital space, compared to the diameter of the eyes, is much wider.
Naked digger
Top "the ugliest animals in the world", by right, can continue a small creature called a naked mole rat. It's for sure that appearance is deceptive - at first glance, such an absurd and outwardly obtuse character of American animated series. And the longer you look at this rodent, the more stupid it seems.
The front teeth of the animal give it the appearance of a perplexedly smiling creature. However, this only seems to be. With its teeth, a naked digger is able to pass even through concrete. It costs him nothing to make a hole in a concrete wall one meter wide. His teeth are diamond-hard. And the effect is enhanced by the fact that 25% of his muscles are directed to the work of the jaws (in humans, only 1%).
The naked mole rat, as the second member of our list of "the ugliest animals in the world", can also be called the dumbest animal, because a third of his brain is focused on only one action - to gnaw, gnaw and gnaw again. It's scary to think what kind of animal would have turned out if nature had worked just as actively on the rest of it.physical abilities.
Madagascar ah-ah
And to close our review of "the ugliest animals in the world" will be Madagascar ah-ah. Looking at the photo of this creature, you will not believe that the animal exists in reality.
This animal is more like a character from a mystical movie. He is cute, and awkward, and scary at the same time. The animal lives in the Madagascar forests, due to the active deforestation of which the species is on the verge of extinction.
Today, bats (their second name) are caught from the forests and populated in reserves for lemurs. Aye-aye colonies are also being created outside Madagascar. The arms, outwardly, are really perceived as the ugliest animals on the planet, their body length is about 40 cm, and together with the tail it can reach a whole meter. Nocturnal primates 16 centimeters long are born, always only in one copy once every three years.
