Ricardo Cabrita has playfully imagined what animals are thinking in this hilarious art series. Cabrita made a number of illustrations that show a number of animals complaining about their problems.
Cabrita also picks and chooses certain quirks and traits that animals have and explains them in an oddly humanized manner. The photo series has the look of a children's picture book and incorporates elements of comics with speech and thought bubbles. Although the bright colors and animal illustrations may make it seem like the series is catered for kids, some of the humor and material requires a bit of adult explanation.
A few of the funniest images include a giraffe that is cut out of a frame, saying: "I don't like Instagram," exclaiming the animal's displeasure because it can't fit its entire body in the picture.
