Then one of my vets said that they were dangerous (she doesn't like them) and will attack when threatened (and when they are grumpy) and can do a bit of damage to a human with its back legs. Seemingly the girls are much worse than boy rabbits - all down to 'hormones'.
Baby chimps are the cutest of creatures - the adults are nearly as vicious as humans.
Seals have huge eyes that make them look docile and cuddleable (a new word??)

I was trying to work out how to day that.
People in the 'east' eat cats and dogs - I have no right to tell them that this is wrong. I just don't like the cruelty involved prior to the death of the animal. It seems that beating them to death tenderises the meat - probably does, but it doesn't show any human being willing to do that in a good light.

They do, which brings me back to the anthromophipication of animals that humans indulge in.
Look at 'I'm A Celebrity' - people are allowed to abuse and eat alive insects because they are not attractive, and they don't make unpleasant noises as they die, so they are seen as fair game.
Could you imagine the outcry if the same treatment was visited on 'cuddly' seal pups?
Just because a creature is not sprayed with evolution's aftershave is not a good reason to subject it to cruel treatment for entertainment - the main reason why I don't watch the show.

AH - "They do, which brings me back to the anthromophipication of animals that humans indulge in. "
A very simplistic view of a very complex relationship. My cats, to you and the rest of the world, are just cats. To me they are people with complex personalities who just happen to be cats.
I sometimes call them my babies and to myself as mum - but not very often as I know that I am here to obey their every command and break up their fights. The cute girly cat is the vicious one

I think I didn't make my point clear.
This is nothing to do with the personality of an animal, or the interaction you can have with it.
My point is the fact that people look at a seal with it's huge eyes with long eyelashes, and it's sleek fur, and they go 'Aaaahhh ...' and convey upon the animal a cute and cuddly 'persona' inspired by it's cute an cuddly appearance. But the reality is entirely different.
That is the point I am making - cute looks do not always make cute behaviour!
