It is uplifting when looking at photos of cute animals. Looking at adorable creatures is a good way to relieve stress and make your day a little brighter. There are many species of animals on the planet, and we can not see all of them in real life. But you can see the 15 cutest animals and their features in this exciting video here.

Now let’s go through some of the Cutest Animal Facts that melt my heart, as listed below.

1. Red Pandas:

Red Pandas primarily live in the Eastern Himalayas. They are an adorable cross between pandas and raccoons, the two cute animals native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. These sweet, furry creatures are so cute when wrapping themselves up in their tails in the winter for warmth.

According to PNAS, a scientific journals platform, Red Pandas have a pseudo-thumb, which helps them to grasp bamboo while eating. They are the only living members of the family Ailuridae.

2. Sheep:

Sheep are herbivores that eat vegetation such as grass. There are over 1 billion sheep in the world, and China has the largest number of sheep in the world. Sheep have a field of vision of around 300 degrees, allowing them to see behind themselves without having to turn their head.

BBC reports a cute feature of sheep that they can recognize facial expressions, and they love smiles!

3. Polar Bears:

Polar bears are found living in the frozen wilds of the Arctic, in Canada, Alaska (US), Greenland, Russia, and Norway. They are the largest bears on the planet and can go months without eating. They don't hibernate like other bears and can swim for days at a time.

On Uberfacts, teddy bears are reported to greet each other when asking or sharing food. They do a kind of Eskimo kiss by touching their noses.

4. Baby Elephants:

Most baby elephants are born at night. They stay very close to their mothers for the first few months and drink their mother’s milk for about two years, sometimes longer. Young elephants, still in the developing stage, are very curious about the world when interacting with nature and each other. Baby elephants’ bodies are covered in hair which reduces over time as they age. These hairs aid in cooling down its body.

A fun fact about little baby elephants is that they suck on their trunks to relax when it’s not feeding time. Just like a human baby does with its thumb, we all know how cute babies can be!

5. Giraffes:

Giraffes are the tallest animals in the world and can grow up to 5.5 meters. They live primarily in savanna areas in the sub-Saharan region of Africa and can live to about 25 years in the wild and even longer in captivity. Female giraffes can become pregnant at five years old. They carry a baby for 15 months and give birth while standing up.

There’a cute fact about giraffes that they can stand up, walk after about an hour,and can actually run alongside their family after only 10 hours. Within a week, they start to sample vegetation.

6. Grizzly Bears:

Grizzly bears are majestic creatures that inhabit western Canada and the northwestern United States. They have rounded ears and short faces and can vary in color from light cream to brown to black.

Grizzly bears can weigh upwards of 800 pounds and can measure 5 to 8 feet long. They live about 30 years in the wild and 40 years in captivity. These bears inhabit prairies, mountains, meadows, forests, and even towns.

The creature is a solitary animal. As reported by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) the cute fact is that Grizzly bear females, even after it’s separated from their mother, will still set up a kind of “home range” around their mom’s territory. They hibernate during the long winter months and sometimes sleep for up to 7 months a year!

7. Koalas:

Koalas are found living mainly in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia. They have gray fur with a cream-colored chest and strong, clawed feet, perfect for living in the branches of trees. Though they may be called koala ‘bears, these awesome animals are not bears at all – they are marsupials, in fact. When an infant koala is born, it immediately climbs up to its mother’s pouch.

A cute fact about these beautiful creatures is that they enjoy having snoozes. Koalas don’t have much energy when not feasting on leaves. They spend their time dozing in the branches. They are believed to sleep up to 18 hours a day!

8. Sea Otters:

Sea Otters, native to the coasts of the North Pacific Ocean, are a member of the weasel family. They can live for up to 23 years and typically weigh between 60 and 70 pounds. They are one of nature's most adorable additions.

The cute fact about Sea Otters is that they can float on their backs on the water’s surface, sometimes within kelp and seaweed forests. They sleep, eat, care for their young, and cuddle each other in this position!

9. Puffins:

Puffins are seabirds and are well suited to life on the sea and mostly eat fish. They spend most of their lives out at sea, resting on the waves when not swimming. They only return to land to breed. Puffins don’t make nests, but they dig holes. They prefer to make burrows on earth or between rocks on steep cliffs so predators cannot easily reach them.

Puffins are excellent swimmers is a cute fact. They use their wings to ‘fly’ underwater while using their feet to control direction. Puffins are incredible divers and can reach depths of 60 meters on their journeys to look for food.

The above is my list of the cutest animal facts I love and want to share with you. I hope you enjoy both the video and the list.
