All animals are much better looking than people. Just accept defeat. :) We are pink apes.

Actually about half of all animals are ugly af, but we just don't post the ones that aren't beautiful, same with people.
What is that????
I don't know exactly what species that is, but it must be in the family of the stabilus difusius
I think it was Perplexity. Moved to using Flux since that cuddly monstrosity.
Yeah hippo mixed with pitbull maybe?
I think the wackos who want to own dangerous dogs try and whitewash them by calling them velvet hippos, but I might have the name wrong.
That is the cutest dog-rhino I’ve ever seen.
Rhinocedog
I think that's cute, I don't know about you guys... :)
I think I saw that kid working at the movie theater

What a cutie!
Dont gotta tell me twice
~~She~~ He was born with it.
Edit: I regret the error.
Maybe it's Maybelline?
I think that's a male Rosefinch. Seems female Rosefinches are grey in color: https://ebird.org/species/comros
TIL.
It's quite peculiar that in the animal kingdom, most of the time, it is the male that's beautiful.
Particularly true with birds
Well, that's more true with birds. They're just FABULOUS.
I the meantime male mammals are all hunky body-builders.
Limited edition valentine's day/blossom tree day birds
Humans want to sing like a bird and look like a bird and humans are birds
Seems we've run into the "want to be != are" fallacy.
They're all in survival mode too. Imagine if they had their equivalent to a balanced diet, low stress, targeted exercise, and science dedicated to bringing out their all.
No no no no no. These guys don't get a glow-up, they're already too damn pretty
Most animals are already living their best lives. We're just the freaks who don't like to do what we actually do.
Joke's on her, I'm colorblind.
Poor finchys face after spending all that time grooming ...
They also eat worms and expell waste at will.
They also don’t know what the internet is and sing all day
Don't birds spend a lot of time preening every day though?
Try living outside and migrating.
The rose finch will always be prettier because it isn’t smeared with bullshit and patriarchy to try and look different.
