Is there anything in the world that we love more than cuddling with our pets? Feeling the love, the warmth, being able to give them affection - we love it. In fact, we want to cuddle with all animals - no matter which ones. We see a dangerous lion - we wanna cuddle it. We see bears - cuddles. We see wolves - cuddles. But have never looked at a stingray and thought - cuddle buddy. Until today.
We thought sea creatures were not particularly interested in human contact. In fact, we know that some sea creatures are huge jerks. So, when we saw this picture of a stingray covering a diver like a blanket, our whole world turned upside down. Now, we don't know if it really makes sense to call what this stingray is doing cuddling - we don't know what it's thinking here, but we choose to believe that it is. Because cuddles. With animals. We want that.
Honestly, in the same way that we really want to know what the stingray was thinking in this moment, we also wish we knew what this diver was thinking. A sudden dark cloud covering the diver from above, then being covered by a huge sea creature. Tbh, we think we would have been scared.
It would have taken us a moment to realize what was happening, but once we did, we probably would have calmed down and accepted our fate. It is worth the potential danger if the reward is getting to cuddle a stingray. Yes, that's what we think about cuddling bears and lions too. We would accept our fates and enjoy every moment.
