I still think all sizes of polar bears are cute, primarily because they are white and so floppy-looking. I know they are dangerous and deadly, but come ON. Just look at their big, floppy feet. Too cute.Nancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627214346956206283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-1617573087597537772009-10-07T22:42:19.976-04:002009-10-07T22:42:19.976-04:00I saw some of those frogs at the National Zoo in A...I saw some of those frogs at the National Zoo in August. They are very cute, even though they can be so deadly. I like fish, but don't think of them as animals that much ... silly I suppose. I tolerate harmless snakes out in the wild fairly well, but I never think of them as cute, so excluding them makes sense. Polar bears are only cute as cubs in commercials and as stuffed animals. Otherwise, I look at them and think DEATH. They are worth saving for sure, but cute is not usually the description that comes to mind for me. Boobies are all cute just by virtue of their name. I am not familiar with Mr. Chris Peckham ... see, I just don't watch enough tv (or good tv anyway).<br /><br />Shirleygfe--gluten free easilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08182613995248482102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-25356860637562939372009-09-28T16:58:20.635-04:002009-09-28T16:58:20.635-04:00V--You are not on the list.

Therefore, they will have to be saved by a different Expert, as I am bound only by my Expertise In Cuteness. I did pause a nanosecond at the ringtailed lemur, but found that it was only because i found it "interesting" and not "CUTE." <br /><br />I, too, was surprised at how CUTE all the frogs were. There was no doubt about it. they were overwhelmingly CUTE.Nancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627214346956206283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-44195282534030994932009-09-26T09:49:23.158-04:002009-09-26T09:49:23.158-04:00I have to speak up for all the big cats under thre...I have to speak up for all the big cats under threat--Fishing Cat, Iberian Lynx, African Lion, and Cheetah.

I was following the flies to my dog's poop the other day, and though, Oh, how handy....even though they're nowhere near endangered, your post reminded me of it. :)Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-91192262187246265762009-09-25T15:45:06.442-04:002009-09-25T15:45:06.442-04:00Nancy--You are correct; I have THE BEST COMMENTERS...Nancy--You are correct; I have THE BEST COMMENTERS EVER! But I am firm in my selections. The Tasmanian Devil is simply NOT CUTE ENOUGH. And since when is looking like a republican a-hole an endorsement here at the Dept? LOL.<br /><br />j@jj--Jules, that is a STRIPED possum. regular possum are hideous. but that one is fashionably cute. admit it. and your Case For Flies, albeit comprehensive, fails to move me. i'm swatting.<br /><br />sputnik--i have to admit, that little orangey crab ALMOST made the list. it was close. but the rest of Your List? nope. NOT CUTE ENOUGH. thank goodness it's ME on the panel and not you. you'd let any old beastie draw breath and we'd be overrun with bugs and crawlies and all those uglies.

You wouldn't see that remark on any other site and it's a riot.<br /><br />And Sputnik has the right idea about the Tazmanian Devil. He's not a bad kid despite his name. He just got in with the wrong crowd.<br /><br />As I used to plead to my kid's Principal,"Give him one more chance, PULEEZE!!!!!!<br /><br />And, finally, my last appeal to your good nature. Spare the Panthera Leo.He looks a lot like Glenn Beck.He has suffered enough.<br />Talk about getting in with the wrong crowd!Nancynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-78425762560844566882009-09-24T17:37:27.402-04:002009-09-24T17:37:27.402-04:00Possums?

I'll admit that picture is dang cute, but I've seen one playing possum, and they're scarey as hell looking. <br /><br />What a sad world we live in sometimes, huh? That any animals can be considered disposable? Or people, for that matter.<br /><br />I was thinking the other day of how useful flies are. They eat shit. And I mean that literally. Also, after my dog poops and I have to go inside to get a bag to clean it up with, they show me where it was. Helpful suckers, huh? One more reason you don't want them in your house, though. They may have been on my dog's shit.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-83553810014111017592009-09-24T11:30:27.161-04:002009-09-24T11:30:27.161-04:00C'mon, Nance, add the Grey-Faced Sengi!

I love the idea of a tree climbing crab. And, that beautiful tarantula had better not be on your list of "bugs." Because they're awesome arachnids, not six-legged bugs!<br /><br />I completely agree with the rest of your list, though. Sun bears! Pengies! And ALL frogs, absolutely, except maybe if the Cane Frog were to become endangered, which a lot of people in Australia wish it would. <br /><br />There.
