We all know that feeling: the one that comes when we see an animal out in the wild. It might be a deer bounding through the forest or a hawk circling overhead.
For a moment, we are transfixed by their beauty and power. We feel connected to them in some way as if they are kindred spirits.
It's easy to understand why animals have been such an important part of human culture throughout history. They can make us happy and brighten our day, just by being themselves.
They remind us of the simplicity and joys of life, and they show us that there is more to the world than meets the eye.
Even science agrees that pets are good for us! Studies have shown that animal companionship can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and promote overall physical and mental health.
They light up our lives in ways that we could never have imagined. You could be having the worst day ever, but seeing a baby duckling waddling around can turn it all around.
So if you're feeling down, or just need a pick-me-up, take a look at these 20 adorable creatures. They're sure to put a smile on your face!
