Description:
We live in a wide and wonderful world, featuring an impossibly varied assortment of living organisms. According to recent estimates, there are 1,367,555 identified non-insect animal species that live on our planet today. Some of these living things are familiar to us in every day life, whereas some are certainly not. This list is focused on the latter, a group of rare and remarkable fish and animals so unique that you may have to see them to believe that they actually exist.
Even as extinction takes its toll on many species of wildlife, explorers worldwide have continued to discover the existence of new ones previously unknown to humankind. Even now, scientists continue discovering new species every year and admit that modern science is not familiar with all existing animals. As we continue to discover new species, we expand our understanding that animals can differ in so many different ways and even creatures that look familiar to us may bear their own unusual characteristics.
From tiny armadillos to big-nosed monkeys to jacked dogs to giant crabs, many of these animals carry a degree of familiarity mixed with something new and eye-catching. On the other hand, others are entirely foreign beings that look nothing like any creature you’ve ever seen on land, water or in any corner of this whole wide world.
For many of these species, it’s no coincidence that they remain so scarce and unknown. A number of them come from species labeled as ‘threatened’ or ‘endangered’, made rare for their sheer lack of population. Those that are not threatened or endangered typically exist in environments that remain untouched by most humans. Some are native to African countries, some reside in Asia and some live down near the bottom of the ocean floor.
The central qualities that set these animals possess are evolutionary and essential to their very existence. The dorsal shell of the Pink Fairy Armadillo provides the tiny creature with a defense against predators, just as the prominent nose of the Proboscis Monkey carries crucial significance as a mating tool. These creatures sometimes offer innate, natural abilities that can even catch the eye of the scientific community, as is the case with the body part-regenerating Axolotl salamanders.
So what makes these creatures so strange? Well, all you have to do is look at them. Those on this list range anywhere from undeniably cute to strikingly grotesque, but every single one of them make a distinct impression. They come in all sizes and in a vast array of varying temperaments, but they all share in common a standout quality that makes them unique. Sure, they may all be oddly compelling to look at from afar, but you probably wouldn’t want to venture too close to any of these guys in real life.
