The funniest animals in the world live in various natural and climatic conditions: in water, on the surface of the earth, in the earth, on trees, etc. Consider the features of some of them.
Hoopoe
Not in vain in the famous dictionary of V.I. Dalya, the word "hoopoe" has 2 funny synonyms - "cockatoo" and "dummy".
Scientists distinguish hoopoe creatures in a separate detachment of funny hoopoe creatures. There is one curious fact about them. During the period of incubation and feeding of the chicks, birds develop a kind of oily liquid, and it is released from the coccygeal gland, after which a terribly unpleasant pungent odor appears. In this way hoopoes protect themselves (like skunks) from danger.
The name of these birds occurred in connection with the guttural cry “ud-ud-ud” issued by them, which is repeated several times in a row. So the funny name "hoopoe" appeared in this bird.
Imperial tamarin
This animal is a monkey that lives in the moist forests of the river. Amazons in Peru (eastern regions), in Brazil, and in northwestern Bolivia. It is called a chain-tailed monkey in connection with the presence of a long and tenacious tail. In addition, the primacy of the imperial tamarin has a mustache and beard that are unusual for such animals, and therefore it can be deservedly called the "Cossack."
Muskrat
The top “funniest animals” often include the well-known muskrat. This is a relict species of mammals from the mole family (a detachment of shrews). Even its name sounds ridiculous. The desman in Russia mainly lives in the river basins. Dnieper, Urals, Volga and Don.
It has a hairy tail (shaped like a turtle). In the pear-shaped thickening of it are specific glands, also odorous. But unlike a skunk, the smell of this animal gives off not so unpleasant and sometimes it is even used in perfumery.
And the fur of these animals is unusual: the hairs expand to the top, and taper to the base. In this dense mass live parasites - desman beetles, not adapted for breathing in water (they survive due to the thick and loose wool that preserves the air).
The cunning desman is a very interesting animal. It moves along special dug trenches at the bottom of the reservoir. In this case, the animal moves along the bottom of the reservoir, slowly exhaling from the lungs the accumulated air.
Komondor (Hungarian Shepherd)
It is impossible to imagine a list of "funniest animals" without this adorable dog.
This is one of the oldest breeds. It was used in ancient times for the protection of cattle (including sheep).
This is one of the largest dogs. Her average height reaches 80 cm. In addition to this and surprisingly affectionate and kind nature, Komondors have an unusual, extravagant appearance. The lovely hairstyle of the shepherd (“dreadlocks”), which is basically a white long laced coat, immediately draws attention to itself.
Snub-nosed monkey (Burmese)
Rinopithek Stryker for his tiny little nose received the interesting nickname "Michael Jackson." This monkey can rightfully be added to the top "funniest animals."
For some reason, nature created him such a strange nose, which causes a lot of inconvenience. The fact is that drops of water fall into their nose during rain, and therefore they sneeze loudly. Due to such inconveniences, they are forced to sit on tree branches during bad weather, hiding their head between the knees.
Such wonderful monkeys live only in Burma (in the north), and their number is about 300 individuals. They were discovered only in 2010. This once again confirms that nature is rich and not yet fully known.
Evrazhka
This funny animal can also be included in the list of “funniest animals in the world” (photo confirms this). Such an interesting name has a gopher, common in the Far East and Siberia, where it is a popular fairy-tale hero in folk Eskimo and Chukchi tales. Recently, there have been frequent references to funny stories that have occurred with tourists and related to these gophers.
Eurazhki are very fond of begging, sometimes it even comes to robbery. With all this, these surprisingly charming, although arrogant animals do not leave anyone indifferent.
The eurasque looks very funny when it eats the extracted food.
