Facial hair is making a comeback in a big way. We’re not just talking about that little bit of stubble that shows up after a day or two of not shaving. We’re talking full-on facial hair styling, wax and all. Men are taking care to make sure that each and every bristly hair is in the right place.
The things is – and I hate to break it to these scruffy beard aficionados – that there are animals out there that have hair to which no human beard will ever compare. See for yourself:
1. If this markhor’s side burns aren’t impressive to you, I don’t know what to tell you. You’re wrong.

2. I like the subtlety of the mustache paired with the robust beard.
share
3. A perfect moo-stache for a perfectly cow-colored pup. Adorable.
share
4. These guys will forever trump all other mustachioed beings. Rock on, little tamarind.
share
5. No need to be insecure about that hearty 5:00 shadow!
share
6. So majestically whiskered. The lumberjack of the sea, perhaps?
share
7. Look, I get it. Your beard is awesome, but you don’t have to gloat about it, goat.
share
8. Such a perfectly tamed handlebar ‘stache.
share
9. Not sure where the mustache ends and the body begins, but it’s cute either way.
share
10. This guy’s got some good chops on him, for sure.
share
11. This must take some serious product.
share
12. Trying to look tough, little nugget?
share
13. Santa, is that you?
share
14. This guy busts out the wax every morning.
share
15. Oooh, underwater whiskers. I like it.
share
16. You can’t be shocked EVERY time someone asks if it’s real…
share
17. Aren’t you a little young to grow a musta— you know what? I don’t even care.
share
18. Perfection.
share
19. This lucky guys has two ‘scaches in one!
share
20. I’d want to rub a beard like that in people’s faces too.
share
21. Happy birthday, you magnificently bearded pooch, you.
share
22. This crosses the line into TOO scruffy territory…
share
23. Is that a neck beard, or a straight up lion’s mane?
share
24. Speaking of…this guy goes au naturel.
