Forged all over: unusual animals for living nearby (23 photos)

Quokka is a harmless animal of the kangaroo family, the size of a dachshund.





She doesn’t know how to fight, she sleeps during the day, and if she doesn’t like her home, she changes it.



By the way, this extremely useless beast lives on the islands of Bald, Penguin and Rottnest.





Considering the characteristics of the quokka mentioned above, she is very lucky: few animals lay claim to the meat of the small creature: hippos, newts or waterbucks are unlikely to want to bite a furball.



A wild animal easily tolerates artificially created conditions and can become a pet without any problems.

There are other cute and useless creatures that you can keep in your apartment, just like the cowock.

Ezo Momonga



Momonga is the main synonym for the word “cute” on the Russian Internet. The big-eyed flying squirrel wins hearts (it’s good that it doesn’t destroy families) and tears up all the top online photos in the photogenic category.



The cute miniature lives on the Japanese island of Hokkaido, settling in hollows in trees.



By the way, Momonga is also cunning; she usually settles in pre-prepared hollows, which were previously made by a diligent woodpecker.



Unlike the quokka, the squirrel has enemies, but because of its silver-gray skin, they cannot see it. The flying squirrel is also nocturnal, which leaves those who want to feast on the little ones (lidusa, owls, foxes) with no chance at all.



Momonga can also live with a person, but requires a lot of attention. Having not received it, the squirrel is sad.



If the animal is played and cared for, it may even reconsider its attitude to its sleep schedule in order to be with its loved one more. It is worth considering that this animal is social; it will not at all be against a pair of the same species.

Gecko



The lizard family has a sweet tooth. Geckos live anywhere, as long as it is warm. Desert? Yes. Tropics? Yes. Mountains? Well, if it's hot there, of course YES!



The lizard is quite popular and many people keep it at home, to no avail, but it eats cockroaches and is pleasing to the eye. They usually feed on crickets and beetle larvae, but they will not refuse sweets, for example, a small amount of honey. Guys need a couple, otherwise they will get bored being useless alone.



Akhatina



Also a good choice if you need a useless creature. A giant snail (shell up to 20cm) will please the eye and leave stains on everything it crawls.



Also extremely passive.



However, there are devils in still waters. What do you think this animal eats?



Vegetables and fruits, but, attention: Achatina will gladly eat fresh meat (the quokka tensed). Or you can not feed her at all for a long time; she will calmly tolerate a restriction in her diet for several days.



These giants live from 5 to 10 years.

Below we will talk about a rodent with no moral principles, which broke into the top of useless creatures and took first place, sparing no one at all.

Forest Dormouse



The cute fluffy rodent only looks like a harmless good-natured person. Its small size does not prevent it from being a nest destroyer and insect destroyer.



Sonya has taken over the world: Lives in Africa, Europe, Asia.



It feeds on seeds or berries, but if there is no suitable food nearby, it turns on the orc destroyer mode and destroys everything that gets in its way: insects - delicious, bird eggs - an excellent breakfast, a chick? Well, the chick is out of luck, he will also be brutally eaten for dinner.



If a person decides to have this monster at home, the animal will not notice the difference and will continue to eat everything it comes across. However, in apartment conditions, this troglodyte may begin to get fat due to lack of activity, so a spacious cage is needed.



Sonya is a sleepyhead. Why? Because he sleeps all the time. The animal is nocturnal, and unlike Momonga, it is not going to change its mode. Moreover, the rodent goes into hibernation in the fall and wakes up in the spring.

You might think it would be better to get a dog or a cat, but everyone has different tastes. Despite their uselessness, all the pets described above will certainly please their owner and give many pleasant emotions.
