11 contenders for the title of the ugliest animal on the planet

On September 11, the British Society for the Protection of Ugly Animals chose their official mascot, which automatically became the ugliest animal on the planet. By means of "popular" voting on the Internet, this title of dubious honor was awarded to a drop fish, which collected almost 10 thousand votes. We invite you to see who fought with her for the right to become the emblem of the Society.

1. The unfortunate blobfish seems to be somewhat taken aback by this turn of events.

2. Nosach, in our opinion, had every chance of winning. It seems that he is, on the contrary, shocked that he did not get it.

3. Axolotl is not even an animal yet, but so far only a larva. But he had already come under the scrutiny of the reverent British defenders. Translated from the Aztec language, axolotl means "water toy". Look what a cutie!

4. British bat. Probably really scary...

5. A two-clawed turtle in the English version is called a "pig-nosed" turtle. For completely understandable reasons. Here the joke of nature is on the face.

6. European eel. An eel is like an eel - no uglier than other eels.

7. The wingless dung beetle is generally unknown for what it ended up on this list. If only because of the name.

8. Humpback jumping snail. So, like, still nothing ... but how to jump! Scary to imagine.

9. Toad-shaped or horned lizard. There are thorns on the body, and sadness in the eyes ...

10. Kakapo or owl parrot - well disguised from those who consider it ugly.

11. Well, the last contender - the Titicaca whistler - waves goodbye to you. Here it is possible without comments, one name is worth something.
