Here at PetSugar, we tend to find even the oddest of creatures pretty darn cute — and you usually agree! This newborn giant anteater, who's being shown off with her mama for the first time at the SF Zoo, is definitely up for debate. I think these fascinating little guys — who are close cousins of the sloth — are super cute, but how do you feel about them?
Side note: does anyone else think mama anteater's front paw looks like a giant panda?
Look how precious this sleepy babe is while resting on mommy's back! Even adult Giant Anteaters have no teeth and suck up all their snacks through those tube-shaped snouts . . . well, when they're awake that is. Bonya looks like she's starting her meal now but do you know how much she — or lil Arthur — actually consumes in one day? Test yourself and choose from the answers below.
With a name as cute as his adoro nose, Adolpho lives in Zoo Berlin (also home to Knut the famous Polar Bear). Born on May 3, this Giant Anteater already loves the keepers at his new home . . . and playing in his enclosure. Looks like the newborn needs no help putting his snout to work, sniffing the grass for ants, of course. Did you know that although these creatures use a long, sticky tongue and a powerful nose to catch insects, they actually don't have any teeth? Instead anteaters use hard growths in their mouths and muscular stomachs to crush bugs – whoa!
