Taking “selfies” (a.k.a., photographs you take of yourself) is a popular trend among children and adults alike. Some are annoyed by it, but most people think of it as a socially acceptable type of picture to post. However, we’re going to see some serious selfie competition on Instagram and Facebook soon… That’s because animals just learned how to take selfies. (What’s next, balancing checkbooks and giving movies terrible reviews on IMDb?) Maybe they didn’t mean to take these pictures, but the resulting photographs are still awesome.
1.) Dog selfies are silly.
2.) Squirrel selfies are cute.
3.) Kangaroo selfies are laaaaaid baaaack.
4.) Gorilla selfies? Inquisitive.
5.) Bird selfies are always a little blurry.
6.) Giraffe selfies always show tongue.
7.) You’ll never forget this elephant selfie.
8.) Slow down and appreciate this sloth selfie.
9.) Deer selfies are WILD.
10.) Monkeys don’t monkey around with their selfies.
11.) Bearded dragon selfies are sharp.
12.) Lemurs take sad selfies.
13.) This pig was hungry for some fame.

17.) But no one beats the cat selfie.
(H/T BuzzFeed) So, don’t just leave your phone lying around. If your cat grabs it, you might just end up with a cat selfie (or a “catsie”) posted to Instagram. You’ve been warned!
