I love a bunch of animals, most of them actually, but I'm gonna say manatees. They're so round and friendly, I'd like to swim with them one day. Also those geckos with the fat tails. Wombats too.

Hammerhead Sharks are my favorite guy. They are such goofballs, it's hard to believe they are an apex predator.

I love birds like that with the massive beaks, they look like some kind of bird-themed puppet. My first thought on seeing these nightjars was "Oh, like the potoo!"

The Tawny Frogmouth is great.

You stepped foot in the wrong neighborhood motherfucker.
 
Rabbits. WONDERFUL little creatures.
With a cutenessfactor above 9000, very social and cosy little thingys and with wonderful personalities (many think rabbits dont have personalities. But as a long time bunnyman i can guarantee there are plenty of unique sides to a bunny to get to know) they just fill that gap in life that nothing else can do. Heartwarming and VERY entertaining little rascals. I cannot recomend the bunny life enough.
Downside is the electronics...they WILL chew them chords and electrocute themselves if you turn your back for too long. Bunnyproofing the house is the hardest part of it. And the walls and wallpaper lives dangerously aswell....expect some propertydamage. Bunnies dont give a fuck...



Other than that i very much appreciate watching squirrels in the wild. All cute animals brings smiles but squirrels always warms my heart a bit extra when i come across them. Very entertaining to watch doing their squirrelbusiness.

And pigs....pigs are underappreciated. Very smart ones....make friends with a pig and you never need another friend in life.
 
Anything from the Artiodactyla order. Deer, moose, cattle, alpacas, sheep, etc. They're just so cute and derpy.

There are a couple of squirrels who live in my trees. Sometimes they'll come up on the porch to say "hello", or take shelter from heavy rain.

Eels. Holy fuck do I love eels. They're such goofy looking little bastards and their little faces just make me want to smooch them on their little heads.
 
Chimpanzees are vicious little bastards, but Orangutans are proper lads at the end of the day.

Moray variety? I have a photo of myself as a kid opening my mouth at one at the aquarium and it responded in kind! I was so surprised. Then I saw some video of those guys swimming up to divers for pets and scratches. I bet they were just looking for parasite relief but how smart and cool. You know what y'all add moray eels to my fish wish lisht.

Yes! I adore morays and I want to go diving one day to pet them! They're such cute little critters.
