Cats, dogs, bears, owls, weasels. Most of them could seriously injure/kill an average human with minor difficulty and yet we find them adorable?

Does not compute.

    Wait until you hear the double standard about how humans saw baby seals. Humans are awfully picky about what they find cute and what they don’t find cute. Like, I find Hyenas cute, but people largely don’t.

      Agreed. I find rodents cute. Rats absolutely included.

      Then there’s the dog question. My position:

      • huskies, collies, spitzes - cute
      • labradors, dachshunds - moderately cute
      • poodles, pugs, bloodhounds - not cute (at all)
