16 animals that have a reputation as the most unattractive creatures in nature (17 photos)

There are many diverse and amazing animals in the world, but not all of them have an attractive appearance that evokes delight and sympathy among us humans. Sometimes nature can give a creature an unusual body structure, outlandish facial features or a strange coat color.





And all in order to make it easier for the creature to protect itself from predators and get food for itself. Therefore, the opinion of mankind in this matter is of little interest to the animal world.

Let's not forget that beauty is a subjective concept. Therefore, to some extent, all living beings can be called beautiful. However, there are species of mammals, reptiles and birds that evoke extremely negative emotions in most people. Below you can see some of them.

Aardvark



This strange baby looks like a pig, a hare and a kangaroo. Lives on the African continent. Incredibly shy and cautious, so it is extremely difficult to meet him in the wild.

Marabou





The proud marabou predator can easily scare any person with its sudden appearance. These birds are quite large in size (about 9 kilograms) and are not the most good-natured. Just look at the huge and thick beak of the marabou and its terrible throat pouch.

Titicaca Whistler



A large frog that lives exclusively within the water. Scientists have never seen this loupe on the surface. Many people find the whistler's appearance repulsive. Others, on the contrary, find him quite cute.

Snake-necked turtle



At first glance, this turtle does not seem creepy at all. However, exactly until she stretches her neck.

Chinese giant salamander



Margach or saiga



The main feature of saigas is their disproportionately large head, as well as a soft, mobile proboscis.

Hammerhead fruit bat



Proboscis



It is curious that in females of this species the nose is only slightly elongated and turned up. In males it is swollen and huge.

Roxellanov's rhinopithecus



Blue-faced, snub-nosed monkeys are found only in Asia.

Tarsier



The tarsier has the largest eyes relative to body size of any mammal. Apparently, because of this feature, his appearance seems so strange. Of course, long and thin limbs add additional color. Just imagine how these little fingers touch your face. Creepy?

Andean condor



Pale Saki



Nature has endowed the eerie white mask exclusively with the males of this species.

Water deer



This vampire deer eats exclusively plant foods. His miraculous fangs are used in skirmishes with other deer and animals.

Naked mole rat



Bald uakari



The skin on a monkey's face is devoid of pigment. But the capillary network underneath is perfectly translucent, which is why the animal has such an unusual red mask.
