After giving you all nightmares with “Scariest Animals to Photograph”, we thought we’d take it easy on you and give you something a little less horrifying to look at. Well, some might be horrifyingly cute, but that’s a risk we were willing to take.

The only danger involved with photographing these animals is an extreme case of the warm fuzzies. So, without further ado, here are the least scary animals we could find:

Lambs – Almost cute enough to give you a stomach ache. Of course, they grow up and lose some of their cuteness, so enjoy it while you can.

Marmots – This chubby, little guy isn’t too intimidating. And he’s just the right amount of ugly to make him cute. Watch him nibble on a graham cracker for further proof.

Penguins – It’s hard to feel too threatened by anything that clumsily waddles around like that and can’t fly.

Cotton-Top Tamarins – Nothing that begins with the word “cotton-top” will ever be scary.

Hedgehogs – Sure, they have spines running along their back, but they are not barbed or poisonous. Besides, their defense mechanism is to roll up into a ball. Not exactly anything to be scared of. Just don’t step on him.
