If we’re talking about the cuteness difference between baby and adult stages, pigs.
Humans
Guinea pig babies are pretty damn adorable, but so are adult guinea pigs. I don’t know how to calculate the difference in cuteness.
“They put the boy in with the girls, and this is the result.”
All except humans
Have you seen parrots and pigeons?
Or several kinds of rodent pups. Or marsupial joeys.
If it comes hair/featherless it’s probably not our jam. Which is ironic, considering we’re pretty hairless.
Or baby flies
French bulldogs
Almost all of them, I thought.
The Damascus goat takes the cake for me!
From anime familiar, to miniboss
From “the Antichrist trying to deceive you” to “the actual Antichrist”
From: Feeling cute, might answer summons later.
To: I have escaped your circle! Cower before my power and flee for your lives as I consume the world.
Seems to be a super old breed, like I couldn’t even find a guess at when they were established.
But they were just the generic goat for a big area where both goats were important, and established trade routes allowed a high degree of genetic variation at first. But then the adults that were allowed to reproduce were always the ones who produced the most milk and meat.
Absolutely zero care about how an adult looked, zero aesthetics. If that weird ass adult look wasn’t tied to something that makes more milk and cheese, it wouldn’t be that weird.
However the breeders know all things being equal, customers would pay more for a goat that didn’t look like ass.
So when choosing which to breed, you pick the most aesthic looking goats hoping for a higher price for the offspring. But with those weird ass adult dreams (almost certainly) increasing milk/meat yield, and everyone wanting to buy the milk goat that looks least hideous…
That split between infant and adult makes sense.
Proboscis monkey

Might as well be a first stage evolution Pokémon it looks so different.
preposterous creature as an adult wtf
Hippos.
I mean look at this cute little shit…
He’s going to grow up to be a 3-ton water-borne death machine.
That is a cute picture, but also this is a pygmy hippo, which are just cute hippos. It’s like saying “baby horses are the cutest animals!” And posting a baby pony as proof
Even the three ton ones are cute too.
Wild boars. We need an antonym for “glow up.”
Fade down
I believe the kids these days say “chopped”
This little cutie will grow up to be an adult Canada Goose.
When I was four or five I went to the zoo with school, when we were being told about Canadian Geese my teacher asked where they were from. Canadian Geese have come up one time too many today for me not to tell that story.
“Hell.”
Baby donkeys
adult donkeys are adorable too, what??
Gotta be Hyenas
Dude, Hyinas are fucking huge. You see them on TV and they’re small compared to stuff around it. They’re closer to taller than a person by a few feet.
Baby crocodiles
Alligators stay kinda cute looking. I took pictures of this guy at my work until management had him removed.
I grew up with a pet alligator, she got to around 5ft. Spent a good portion of her life sleeping under my bed and she’d walk herself to the tub when she wanted a swim. They’re cute as the dickens and she actually had an amazing temperment.
Somebody already beat me to gosling, but have another
And another. This is the same bird a month later.
