It's not often that I find out about a new animal, since I grew up reading encyclopedias(I was weird) but I just learned about these guys

Velvet worm
Peripatoides novaezealandiae
I also learned about argonuats or paper nautilus about a month ago

If you know ANY weird animals please post them here! We'll see if I know them or not.

I've seen it, don't know much about it though, crazy looking thing!


I’m very much a nerd for the weird. I could go on. Like there are a bunch of suspension feeding sea cucumbers

There is some weird looking deer like creatures in the world

Damara dik dik! One of my favorites! I used to live in Namibia and these were so cute!
Also lived around aardwolves which are a type of hyena that eats only insects. An aardvark-wolf (though really neither)

Atretochoana eiselti. This one is weird enough that I’m not going to attach a picture or even say it’s common name. I will also warn you that though this is a very real animal, you may not want to look at pictures of this at work.
