Ugliest Animals
The naked mole-rat, also known as the sand puppy, is a burrowing rodent native to parts of East Africa. It is closely related to the blesmols and is the only species in the genus Heterocephalus of the family Heterocephalidae. Very, very ugly.
Also, why are people in the comments of the pug praising it for being adorable? Pugs are hideous, made by breeders who think people with squashed faces who can't breathe are cute and decided to add that to dogs. Naked mole rats are on equal terms of ugliness with the pug, though.
Goodness gracious, that does indeed look like a pinkish bruised sack of organs! Nasty at its fullest.
It just looks super unhealthy. Why does it look like this?
The blobfish is a deep sea fish of the family Psychrolutidae. It inhabits the deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania, as well as the waters of New Zealand. The blobfish was elected the ugliest animal in the world in an online poll that we ran. It lives off the coast of Australia and Tasmania and is being driven to the brink thanks to deep-sea trawling. We don't even eat them. They just get caught in the nets by accident.
No doubt, this is visually the ugliest animal Mother Nature has done (or God, depending on your belief). However, it's sad that they are threatened with extinction. These guys deserve to be preserved, despite their ugliness.
Blobfish need pressure (found on the ocean floor) to keep themselves upright. They only look like blobs because they're away from their home.
The aye-aye is a lemur, a strepsirrhine primate native to Madagascar that combines rodent-like teeth that perpetually grow and a special thin middle finger. Aye-ayes are critically endangered and can only be found on the island of Madagascar.
The proboscis monkey or long-nosed monkey, known as the bekantan in Indonesia, is a reddish-brown arboreal Old World monkey with an unusually large nose. It is endemic to the southeast Asian island of Borneo. The proboscis monkey has an enormous nose that might be used to help attract a mate or to make loud honking calls.
Why do they have that awful-looking nose? Why, evolution? WHY?
They look creepy with a side of cute.
Humans (Homo sapiens) are the most abundant and widespread species of primate, characterized by bipedalism and large, complex brains. This has enabled the development of advanced tools, culture, and language. Humans are highly social and tend to live in complex social structures composed of many cooperating... read more Our species is ugly, face it. The number of us on this planet doubles every few decades, wiping the world out of its resources because all of us need to eat, drink, have a home to live in, and more.
I can't understand people wanting to have more crotch goblins and live longer than most animals. There are way too many of us, and that's what makes us ugly.
We are the ugliest animals on the planet, not any other animal, only us. I'm ashamed to be human with what's happening to this planet. We're destroying it, and that, in my eyes, is the definition of ugly, not how something looks. We don't deserve to share the same planet as these poor animals.
The star-nosed mole is a small mole found in wet low areas in the northern parts of North America. It is the only member of the tribe Condylurini and the genus Condylura. What's with the tentacles or whiskers on its nose?
I had nightmares about this animal once.
Its jaw is loose off its mouth, which is creepy but also fascinating.
This thing is ugly and terrifying.
Hagfish can produce gallons of snot from their skin in a matter of minutes. This snot will clog the mouth of anything that tries to eat it.

The Sphynx is a breed of cat developed through selective breeding starting in the 1960s, known for its lack of a coat, though it is not truly hairless. I don't despise cats, but I hate Sphynx cats. They look like an abomination to me.
Yeah, Sphynx cats are ugly to me, but I respect other people's opinions.
Yikes! Why was I even complaining about the blobfish? This fish is even worse.
Scotoplanes, commonly known as the sea pig, is a genus of deep-sea holothurian echinoderm of the family Elpidiidae, order Elasipodida. Why does every non-fish sea creature look like it came from another planet?

Although the axolotl is colloquially known as a "walking fish", it is not a fish, but an amphibian. The axolotl is only native to Lake Xochimilco and Lake Chalco in Mexico... read more Looks like it came from another planet.
Centipedes are arthropods belonging to the class Chilopoda of the subphylum Myriapoda. They are mainly carnivorous and they prey upon insects, spiders, small birds and rodents, and even other centipedes.
I would rather die than look at these!
