My Top Five Strangest Animals

What makes an animal strange??

1. Dugong
2. Wombat
3. Praying Mantis
4. Weta
5. Komodo Dragon

and yes there are many more out there.

All weird and wonderful in their own way.

  1. What about the naked mole rat? (They're resistant to cancer, BTW.) Or the platypus? Or the electric eel? What makes the ones you listed so weird?

  2. 1. yes, all worthy candidates, tho not as cuddly (I DO realise it's weird, not cuddly, we're looking for...)

    2. The blobfish is definitely weird, and I recommend following Alex's link to it (frog fish also a cool weird one).

    3. 2-headed lizard!

  3. you put 2 headed lizard, you could just as easily put 2 headed human.

  4. Wombats aren't cuddly. Unless they're drugged, maybe.
