***2013 Worlds Most Ridiculous Creature Competition... nominations Thread***

[Lush]

The axolotl (with extra points for cool name)



And the geoduck (snigger)

 

[The Brighton Bear]

I'm going to nominate the Pink Fairy Armadillo

I second that one!

 

[Hillian1]

Pelochelys Cantorii aka Soft shelled turtle - looks like it has been run over!

I'll second that, reminds me of my dog Lucky, not that it was.

 

[The Brighton Bear]

Pelochelys Cantorii aka Soft shelled turtle - looks like it has been run over!

What's the point in having a shell if it's soft?

Seconded.

 

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

The Sun Bear, because, lets face it, it looks like a bit of a SPAZ

 

[Giraffe]

I'll second the poodle.

Thanks

 

[Giraffe]

Manatees. Basically, giant floating cows

Seconded

 

[Giraffe]

I propose the Giraffe. I am completely ridiculous.

 

[Hillian1]

I propose the Giraffe. I am completely ridiculous.

Seconded.

 

[tricky]

How about the dog-sick slime mould? So bizarre that no one seems to know how to categorise it. Has a life cycle that goes between single celled amoeba, large mushroom type growth and creeping piles of yellow sick. Certainly one of natures prototypes that went wrong.

 

[The Grockle]

Has to be the Mole Rat, sometimes called the Naked Mole Rat. Spends it's entire life of almost 30 years underground, amazing creatures!

 

[jimhigham]

I'll second the axolotl.

Would it be ridiculous to nominate the honey badger as a ridiculous creature. A badger that likes a punch up?

 

[TSB]

Star nosed mole - looks like it has just run into a wall at high speed!

Seconded. Weird looking thing.

Also second the Bird of Paradise. Could go a long way

 

[TSB]

I'm tempted to back something as thick and useless as this. Especially when it looks this stupid.

The lad would appreciate your help. Also tried to mate with a human's head on tv. Not the brightest of creatures, but quite endearing.

 

[TSB]

Turkey - Looks ridiculous and sometimes forgets how to eat off the ground, so has to be spoonfed by the farmer.

 

[TSB]

Visored bat Why? What's the point?

 

[OvingdeanSeagull]

I nominate the Angler fish.

 

[Bladders]

Wasps.

Seconded. Pointless bastards.

 

[Pevenseagull]

for your consideration Urechis unicinctus

you'll never guess what it's common name is

The Penis Fish!? I second this!
