No matter the grey hair, for our parents, we will always be babies. Hence, all the unasked advice on changing jobs, traveling abroad, getting a loan, you know it. But this time, we won't be talking about humans as we shift onto the animal kingdom to see what animal babies are like.
The obvious thing is how impawsibly cute they are. But other than that, for those who skipped biology (myself included), animal babies are somewhat of an unknown terrain. Do baby hedgehogs even have spikes? Do newborn gorillas resemble human beings? Baby sloths, are they just as cute and slow as adult sloths?
So Bored Panda has prepared for you quite a collection of pictures that should answer all these questions. Be prepared to make your heart melt, and don’t forget to upvote your favorite baby animals! Psst! More pictures of rare animal babies you probably have never seen can be found right here.

Suddenly, A Tiny Baby Skunk
Dobby And Draco Are Being Released Tomorrow
just a small town girl, living in a lonely world!!! she took the midnight train going anywhere. LOL sorry your name reminded me of dont stop believing by journey!!!
Load More Replies...YES that's what I was going to say. Dobby is freeeee, sir!
Load More Replies...I would be heart broke if I was the "releaser ", although I know it's the right thing to do! That's the sole reason I don't foster ANYTHING, including human babies, they'll ALL be foster-fails!
This photo is messing with me... are they flying, or does the water defy gravity?
Interested in seeing Lily, Draco, and Dobby being released back to the ocean? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhxBa841xeo
We would like to know if we can stay here for a little bit longer cause that big ocean is just a bit to big for us right now PLEASE !
OH we are to tiny to go to that big ocean can't we stay for a little longer please ;=]]
So excited that they are to be released. You will have made Mother Nature very happy.!
aw, they look so cute... it must be tough releasing animals once they've grown on you.
The primary way that animals grow and develop is by building more cells. When an animal eats food, its body breaks the food down and uses it to fuel its energy requirements and build new cells through the process of mitosis. These new, or daughter, cells are often similar in size to the old, or parent, cells.
In order to produce more cells, animal cells divide in two. The process is a complex one since the parent cell has to produce new organelles for each resulting daughter cell. It then has to copy the genetic code as accurately as possible and transfer both copies of the genetic code into the nuclei of the daughter cells. In science, it’s called mitosis.

How can people see this and kill their mothers and keep the kids as pets?
However, mitosis requires a lot of energy that comes from food, along with the raw materials for constructing more cells. The food that animals eat is then transformed into usable energy for cells or can be used to build new cells, which form tissues like skin and muscle. The process of growth involves eating food, breaking down food through digestion, absorbing nutrients from food, and building tissue.

The rate of growth of an organism has a direct impact on its ability to adapt to the environment. For instance, an increase in the rate of growth of fleshy parts of the fish fin would provide an opportunity for the fish to adapt more easily to terrestrial locomotory life than could a fish without this modified fin. Scientists believe that hence, it may play a role in evolution.

What in the absolute cuteness is this?!? and Why have I never heard /seen one?
A 2 Week Old Lemming In A Spoon
Omg, So much cuteness. Love this post. Thank you for sharing.
You don't . You pour it out through your nostrils and make it into a candle . It smells like blood , pain , death , and butterflies
Load More Replies...I think is the first time I've ever seen one of these articles where at least one of the pictures *wasn't* a doll/felt model being passed off as a real animal.
Hey Bored Panda, maybe don't shorten this list like all the others? Each picture is precious and deserves to be seen.
I really had to pull myself together to not upvote every single image
But the baby "warthog" still isn't a warthog, but probably a baby boar. Warthog are dark all over with little tails stuck straight up in the air.
Do not shorten the list, every animal,here is worth seeing, awwwww
I prefer the full article. Why would ANYONE want to limit how many cute, adorable animal babies one could see?!?
yes thank you i smiled at each one...............me: *smiles at posts my mom:"what are you doing?" me:* shows pic of baby hippo my mom:*passes out
Notice that a lot of these bbys are blepping. I love and live for a good blep.
Okay, I’m literally crying now form the cuteness. Like there are actual tears of joy at how adorable these are.
Thank you for sharing. I needed a dose of happiness today, and you must certainly gave it to me!
Such beautiful babies, my heart just melted, I love this post, so awesome , we need more post like this
They're beautiful but one comment... See all this cuteness fill my heart with love and I bet yours too, so my question is why do you keep eating and killing their mother's and father? It is very difficult to see how Our moral society is so wrong. Don't wanted to fight just thinking out loud.
