Even some impressions on television made a compilation video funny behavior of the animals. Problem is, according to scientists, humans instinctively was attracted to the cute adorable features. Features like a baby, which has large eyes, chubby cheeks, large forehead and round face usually make most people interested.
"These features are very ingrained and made us want to respond," said psychologist from Yale, Oriana Aragon quoted by CNN.
Well, often the animals are considered funny to have such a feature: big eyes in the head with a small body. Therefore, when looking at the animals with features like that, make some people do the same reaction when dealing with babies.

Well, once Aragon and his team showed a number of pictures of animals such as elephants, ducks and cats in baby and adult versions. Participants viewed a picture while holding the plastic bubble (bubble wrap pack). It turned out that when he saw the baby of the beast, the participants pressed more bubbles in plastic packaging than when looking at the animals in the adult version.
