There is really nothing cuter than baby animals. Nothing. Not even human babies (sometimes they're kinda ugly tbh). If you're looking for a boost of serotonin to get you through those slow afternoon hours at work, feast your hungry eyes upon these pictures of baby animals from all over the world that aren't cats or dogs (because we see them all the time). And if you want some more cute content after perusing these pics, have a look at these dogs with frankly ridiculous haircuts. 

Another day, another adventure gone slightly wrong for Freddie, the trouble-seeking seal. 4 rescues, 3 countries, and he's back out in the wild and, going by probability, we will most likely see Freddie pop up in another rescue story at some point. 

As Mirror reports, Freddie's adventures started at only 9 months old. "The adventurous pup... started his journey in the Netherlands last year where he was treated at a hospital in August where he was given his name. After he was released, he then turned up in Calais France in January, where he was treated at another seal rescue centre suffering from lungworm. Three weeks ago having made a good recovery, he swam the Channel before making his way 70 miles up the river Thames to Teddington Lock, south west London."

And... a week later, Freddie was found, yet again, in the Thames as he was snagged in the mouth by a fishing lure. He's totally fine, by the way, as adventurous as ever, but we wouldn't expect anything else of this trouble maker.

It's winter, it's cold, all we wanna do is hide at home under our blankets, but allll the wintery fluffy animals are popping out and living their best lives. And that's totally something to celebrate in our opinion. This time, our winter wonderland animal appreciation is the chonkiest, roundest fully baby harp seals.

Does anyone really need anything beyond that? It's chonk, it's fluff, it's baby, and it's so intensely huggable. Just imagine getting your arms around these fluffballs - not to warm them, mind you, they'll be the ones warming you. So try to enjoy this winter as best as you can and let these wintery beauties help you through it. 

Some animals may be masters at playing hide and seek, but not these ones. Nope. These cuties, fierce as they may be, truly suck at the art of stealth. They're trying their best though, and we love them for it. 

Even the cats, animals who, in nature, are some of the stealthiest, most gasp-inducing creatures of all, have really failed in these pics. Then again, they may think they're fierce, but we know that our tiny widdle kitty babies are the clumsiest, funniest, most adorable animals of all, so of course they suck at hiding. 

All of these animals are the best at making a smile find its way onto your face, so enjoy these silly but adorable animals and have an amazing weekend!

Every week, we bring you a new collection of animal pictures that are simply too incredible to describe in anything less than 1000 words. Some pictures are just like that, the stories behind them are too vast and complex. And many times, even though we may not know the story, it takes all but one glimpse to know that it's there. Something must have led to this special moment in time being caught, either something hilarious, adorable, or shocking. 

So, look at these incredible photos and let your imagination take over. Who knows? Maybe you'll see one that will inspire you and have you wanting to make something incredible of your own.

Some pictures are impossible to capture in just a few words, the stories behind them are far too fascinating. Week by week, we bring you a collection of photos just like these. 

When it comes to pictures that are worth more than 1000 words, there is complexity. It's not just that these pictures are beautiful, which they are, but we also see the story behind them - the emotions, the atmosphere, the endless possible situations which might have led to the pictures being taken. They could be funny, heartwarming, or awe-inspiring. They might make you smile, or they might make you think. What's for sure is that there is no way we could sum them up in anything less than 1000 words. 

What started as a daily routine of relaxing on the rocks after a swimming session didn't go as planned for this adorable baby seal. 

Fortunately for the poor creature, a group of people who were walking on the beach, spotted him and called the kind-hearted volunteers of St. Mary's Island Wildlife conservation.

This adorable Seal pup from the St. Petersburg's Marine Mammals rescue Center tried to escape a few days ago but didn't manage to go too far away as he was found sitting in the corridor between the water houses. 

The adorable seal has since been photoshopped into many popular memes.

NIWA (@niwa_nz), a governmental research agency in New Zealand came across the "unexpected discovery" while analysing the scat of leopard seals. The scientists are trying to locate the owner of the USB stick, which is still in good working order. People on twitter couldn't stop laughing. 

Yep. Just like the headline says.
