Over here at Animal Comedy, we pride ourselves on finding the humor and beauty in all animals. BUT- not all animals have the same good associations like doggos and cats. Nope, there are many animals we silly humans stick up our noses at, for whatever reason. Usually it is totally undeserved. We humans have just been trained by society to associate some animals with negative attributes. For example, pigs. When we think of pigs, we think of dirty and gross, when in reality pigs are some of the cleanest animals out there!

Animals like pigs have bad reputations that they totally do not deserve. We decided to ask our Animal Comedy enthusiasts on Facebook about which animals they think have bad reputations that are totally unjust, and we got a whole bunch of great answers. We compiled all of our favorites for you in this handy dandy listicle format for you to peruse through while enjoying a lunch break, a before bed social media stint, or under whatever circumstances you enjoy consuming content.

    Rectangle - Annesa Ramlakhan Sharks They're just sea puppies to me Also, we're the ones who put ourselves in the situation of encountering them when we choose to go into their homes. They're no threat to us on land (and sea but you get my point) DO 13 Like Reply Hide 1w Edited

    Font - Erin Hamby Littleson Pigs. Given the space and freedom any animal deserves, pigs are by far the cleanest of all farm animals and I would venture to say second only to cats in the greater animal kingdom. They get their reputation for filth from improper care from humans. This is Muchacho and Gus. They'll never do anything wrong! Sincerly, a pig farmer.

    Font - Charlotte Steele Rats. Domestic rats that are pets are actually very sweet and loving. People just automatically think of poisonous and Ferrell rats, instead of distinguishing them from domesticated ones. Like Reply Hide 1w

    Font - Charlotte Steele Cats. There are people out there who think they are not as lovable as dogs and don't show affection. Um yes they do! You can have such a lovable cat who loves you and shows it so much. If you have never had this experience, you haven't met the right cat. Like Reply Hide 1w
