Giraffes are my favorite.
Those eyelashes!
For fun, the otter can't be beat.

Mr. Dixon greetings from SLP., México, Funny picture, I have a friend wich his nickname is "Chupacabras" and really is like this picture.
I think so......I think ants are the most fascinating animal on the planet because their behavior is so close to ours. They form organized societies, specialize in labor, fight wars over resources, undertake mass migration, keep slaves, and practice agriculture and animal husbandry. I love the fact that there are so many different kinds because I never stop learning new things about them.
When I was a kid, the yard around our house was home to two rival colonies of black ants. Their civil war was fought over all kinds of terrain: skirmishes on windowsills, full line battles on sidewalks, scavenging parties clashing around dead beetles and earthworms. Sometimes hostile third parties - like wolf spiders or the red ants from the lawn next door - would make incursions and would have to be driven off, but the two black colonies would always return to their fratricidal struggle. For a little boy obsessed with historical warfare, it was a great show. Many and ruthless were the battles that I witnessed (and sometimes instigated) between these two tribes, and for all I know they are still fighting to this day.
