We all know the story of the Ugly Duckling who grew into a beautiful swan, but what about other animals? Are they beyond ugly as babies too, only to grow up into gorgeous-looking creatures?
There is no getting around the fact these animals are ugly. Not as in ‘cute’ ugly, but completely hideous. The first one totally looks like an alien, so much so that it’s really creeping me out. A lot.
