On the pyramid of cuteness, dogs, cats, and baby…well, anything, are up there. What you probably never thought to include, though, were platypuses. That’s right, those weird mammals that look kind of weird and have long noses. This is us making a case for platypuses to be included in that cutest ever list. They deserve it.
One platypus in particular, at the Healesville Sanctuary in Australia, is especially adorable. This little guy loves to be tickled and hand-fed. If she’s not the cutest thing you’ve seen all day, we don’t know what is! Have a look for yourself:

It’s like if you took all the best parts of a dog, a duck, and an otter and made them into one animal!
