Baby Deer

This baby deer might just be the sweetest thing that we have seen all day, with this baby being a Chinese water deer in particular. They might be cute, but they have a nasty bite, and they are known as “vampire deer” thanks to their unique fangs that develop as they grow older. You need not fear being bitten by one, however, as these fangs are generally for show. This baby is one of around 60 percent of deer offspring lucky enough to have lived through their often dangerous youth, who easily perish in just a month’s time following birth.

Baby Anteater

What makes this baby anteater so adorable is how it is clutching onto this person’s arm so sleepily! The Vermilingua suborder is an umbrella term for four different species of mammal. The literal translation of this Latin word is “worm tongue”, something that might delight Lord of the Rings fans! They use this worm tongue to lap up termites and ants, which are their preferred feed. If you thought that this snoozy baby anteater bore an incredible resemblance to a sloth, it is because they are indeed very similar! Anteaters also share many traits with armadillos.
