Baby Owl

We might have some trouble expressing our feelings for baby owls. Their puffy feathers, spherical shapes, and enormous eyes make for a uniquely irresistible cuteness. Like the alpaca, owls are amazingly affectionate and will often return the love. One should try not to get too attached to a baby owl during the rehabilitation process, however, as these little birds will need to return to the wild once they are old and strong enough. Wildlife workers often use owl puppets to feed babies with to make the process easier.

Baby Pygmy Hippo

Here is another astonishing creature that you might have never heard of before. Let us start off by informing you that the baby pygmy hippo is an incredibly friendly creature, even if your standard hippo can be scarily ferocious. Within the animal kingdom, few creatures enjoy a pregnancy period longer than the hippo, one that lasts around eight months and results in a single offspring. Once the baby has finished bonding with its mother following a few weeks’ period, the more mature hippo will join a larger hippo group to help defend offspring from the threat of predators. This orphan baby pygmy hippo seems to have happily bonded with their human carer.
