Question

Why do these animals fascinate

Answer 1

People love to watch animal videos because they get to see something that they might not get to experience on a daily basis. For example, a monkey doing tricks is not something that you get to see everyday. Also, animals can simply make you smile or laugh to lighten the mood

Answer 2

Answer:

A bit hard to answer, as it depends a lot on what animal you are asking about.

• Beauty( it in the eye of the behokder, but many animals have a petability factor. Quite high in cats and wolf like creatures, and less in many insects and reptilians)
• Cuteness (also very subjective, but well, the red panda’s attack is ofteen seen as cute, not as dangerous: )
• Strength/agility/endurance (athletic animals)
• Abilities (bat’s echo location, snake’s infravision) abilities that we do not have, or not as welll developed)
• Curiousness (animals who ate as interested in you as you in them, squirrels, mongooses - or is that mangeese -)
• Alieness (animal who differ so much from us, it is just weird we inhabit the same planet)
• Alikeness (mostly apes, who do have a lot of human manners)
• Many animals have a combination of points.

• For me, beauty, cuteness and curiousness are strong points fo me to like an animal. But I cannot deny that i can be fascinated by the brutal strength of an aligator.
