Bouncing Buddies
They're very different, but the adorable marsupial quokka and kangaroo are pitted against baby elephants and goats to see who really is the cutest.
Kicked-Back Cats
Having power, size and speed doesn't mean an animal isn't cute, but the humpback whale and the cheetah have stiff competition from the echidna.

It's the giant giraffe versus the world's smallest penguins in this contest for cuteness, with alpacas, orangutans and dolphins putting in their bids.

Footpads and Flippers
Manatees, leopards, penguins and whale sharks are all beloved by their caregivers, who explain why they're really the cutest creatures on earth.
Weird and Wonderful
The zebra, flamingo, snow monkey and Malayan tapir are admired for their unique, colorful markings, but even these oddities can still count as cute.
Tall Tails
Marmosets, squirrels and arctic foxes all have prominent tails, but the mighty rhinoceros is a surprising entry in this tail-wagging cuteness contest.
Quirky Quadrupeds
The stubborn but lovable wombat might overtake the cuteness factor of a hippopotamus' grin, but can it win out over an adorably cuddly baby sea otter?
Pole to Pole
From the North Pole to the South, competitive cuteness reigns, from the majestic polar bear to the cheeky spider monkey and adorable kangaroo joey.
