 There are a wide range of species of flora and fauna on Earth, most of which aren’t even known to us, either due to their habitat or their way of living. Here is a list of the Top 10 most wonderfully weird animals on the planet

1) Bumblebee bat

3) Tarsiers



Tarsiers are little apes which are found only in the islands of Southeast Asia. However, they mostly live in Borneo. They are 4-6 inches tall and their eyes are each the size of their brains. What makes these primates so rare is the fact that they were completely carnivorous-they eat bugs, birds, lizards, snakes and bats.

4) Leafy seadragon



The leafy seadragon gets its name from both its appearance as well Chinese mythology. It gives the illusion of floating seaweed with long leaf-like extensions all over the body. They are not for thrusting itself through the water but only as a means of camouflage. The leafy seadragon pushes itself by means of a pectoral fin on the edge of its neck and a dorsal fin on its back closer to the tail end.

5) Angora rabbit



One of the oldest types of domestic rabbit, it is bred for its long, soft hair. It originated in Ankara, Turkey, along with the Angora cat and Angora goat. They are largely bred for their long wool, which may be removed by shearing, combing or plucking. There are many individual breeds of Angora rabbits, four of which are ARBA recognized: English, French, Giant and Satin. Other breeds include German, Chinese, Swiss to name a few.
