Person Photographs Strange Animal And Freaks Out, Twitter Tries To Figure Out What TF It Is (Viral Tweets)

Have you ever looked at an animal and thought… what in the heck is that? Sometimes, we see a picture of an animal online, and we think just that. Like when we saw a picture of a mouse-deer for the first time - it didn't even look real, just looked like a badly-drawn dog. Or when we saw a viscacha for the first time and thought that it was just a perpetually-grumpy-looking large rabbit or something.

The animal kingdom is so vast, there are so many animals that we don't know about. Heck, you might even adopt a 'dog' once only to realize it's not a dog. It can be pretty freaky honestly - when you can't be sure whether this an animal you can pet or an animal you should run from immediately, like the Tasmanian devil who looks cute but would most likely bite your face off if given the chance. And this animal that this twitter user encountered in Tampa the other day definitely fits into this category of 'what the heck is that'.

We have looked at this photo for a good five minutes now, and we still have no clue what the heck this animal is. All we know is that if saw it in real life, we would be backing away very, very slowly and wondering whether we should be calling animal control or a local shelter.

Honestly, considering how viral this tweet has gone, we hope someone will call a local shelter. Because no matter what animal this is, it certainly looks like it could use some help. Unless it's a coyote, in which case… yeah, run as fast as you can and do not step any closer to it please.
