Almost all baby animals are cute. But they have to stay that way into adulthood! Here’s a small selection of the cutest animals on the planet, even once they’ve reached their full size!
1. The flying phalanger
The Flying Phalanger is a small marsupial that appears to be a subtle cross between a kangaroo and a squirrel. Native toOceania, it has the astonishing ability to glide thanks to two skin “wings”, hence its name.
2. The red panda
The red panda looks like something out of a cartoon. And for good reason: he looks part bear, part fox, part raccoon. This great bamboo lover is found only in the Himalayas .
3. The quokka
The quokka is a small marsupial that lives only in Australia. With his round ears, dense fur, stocky body and permanently smiling mouth, he’s sure to make our hearts beat faster!
4. The squirrel
There’s no denying it, a squirrel is awfully cute. Especially when it eats its little nut…
5. The hedgehog
At first glance, a hedgehog doesn’t look very appealing. But a closer look reveals its small head and curvaceous body. And the least we can say is that it’s a truly adorable animal!
6. The koala
The koala is also a marsupial, but it looks like a teddy bear! Now Australia’s mascot, it’s renowned for its ability to sleep a lot (around 19 hours a day) and eat a lot, mainly eucalyptus leaves.
7. The rabbit
With its big ears and round face, the rabbit is one of the cutest animals in the world, that’s for sure. And don’t even get me started on the dwarf rabbit!
8. The sea otter
With its large whiskers and gentle demeanor, the sea otter is the biggest of the otters, but also the cutest. It is found only in the North Pacific.
9. The giant panda
The giant panda looks like a big, clumsy teddy bear you want to curl up with. And for good reason: this animal, which lives in central China, is a real gentleman who spends his days eating bamboo.
10. The fennec
The fennec, also known as the sand fox, is a small fox with very long ears. In fact, it’s the smallest canine on the planet!

The Pomeranian Spitz is a small dog with a really cute head. It looks like a little teddy bear! He’s known for his affectionate temperament, but also for his temperamental streak…

14. Chinchilla
The chinchilla is a small rodent with mouse-like ears and a curvaceous body. In short, it’s got everything we need to fall in love with it!
