I don’t think I’ve ever met a baby animal that I didn’t like!
No matter what the shape, size, or species, all animals are beautiful in their own special way! Even strange critters like these “sea bunnies” have their own unique charm.
That said, I think that we can all agree that baby mammals take the cake when it comes to demonstrating the animal kingdom’s talent for producing unbelievable amounts of cuteness.
Science tells us that we humans love baby mammals because they remind us the most of our own babies. I can only assume that’s true, because I will happily waste hours watching an adorable puppy like this tiny golden retriever play!
But what about animals that we’re not so familiar with, like wild boars, for example? Well, I am here to tell you that wild boar piglets are definitely just as cute as any puppy.
My evidence? A truly darling video released by the Santuario Gaia in Spain. The animal preserve makes it their business to rescue animals from all sorts of bad living situations, ranging from adopting homeless cats and dogs to rescuing farm animals from abuse.
This particular piglet is named Mariona, and she ended up at the sanctuary after hunters killed her mother. Sanctuary workers estimate that she’s less than 2 days old here, and are giving her very first meal not provided by her mother.
Were you charmed by sweet baby Mariona? Then please SHARE on Facebook to spread the word about this amazing organization!
