The aye-aye is weird-looking enough as an adult, but it looks like a Jim Henson creation as a baby.
Definitely humans. I mean, look at newborn babies. They are little wrinkly screaming poopgoblins.
You could describe the elderly in the same way.
Touché. I guess you’re right.
But right in the middle, some of us are… well not terrible. Not necessarily great, but not terrible.
We end the way we began.
Human larvae
Fuckin humans. Little alien potatoe mutant lookin infants geoss me the fuck out.
Pretty much every bird
Except the birds with precocious chicks. They’re pretty much all cute. For example, the baby killdeer is adorable. baby chicks and baby ducks are pretty cute too.
Damn, good point. Ducklings are adorable. And look at this little guy!
As I think about it, that’s a pretty good rule for most vertebrates(I exclude fish in this). If the newborn can walk around within an hour of being born or hatched, it’s a lot more likely to be incredibly cute. Deer, giraffe, elephant, horses are all pretty cute. Kangaroos(all marsupials, actually), rats, mice are all pretty ugly. You could start a flame war debating the relative cuteness of newborn humans, canines and felines in comparison. Though they get pretty cute fairly fast.

Stellars Jays spring to mind. One of the most beautifully punk-rock looking birds and worryingly intellegent, but my god their young look like nothing more than cancerous scrotums.
Platipus - they start as boring eggs
Yaknow… There’s a freshly born stage and then a teenie cute stage.
Many freshly born animals are not cute at all. Even for a few weeks. Then you give it 2 months and it’s cuter. Still a baby.
nope, all kittens are cute. Most puppies, however, I find very un-cute!!
Oh I agree all kittens are cute. Can’t find a graph for ferrets or something though.
I mainly wanted to point out the difference between a newborn and a 3/4 week old.
Neutered at just 2 months? I’ve always been told 6 months.
Frogs
Tadpoles can be cute, but I think frogs beat out tadpoles for most people.
