There’s a few contenders out there. But which is the most wholesome?

    I’m torn on this. Bumblebees are adorable and we’d die without them pollinating things. They sting but almost never.

    Sheep are pretty cute and totally harmless. People aren’t harmed by a rabid sheep!

    Then there’s bunnies. Hopping around being adorable and they’re harmless animals that you can hug.

    It’s a tough one!

      I wouldn’t say “totally harmless”, don’t get me wrong it isn’t like I am going to be scared of a sheep in the way I might some kind of large predator but males will charge you and ram the shit out of you and if they have horns that has the potential to be nasty.

      We used to have a sheep that loved being stroked and would head butt you in appreciation, the only problem is the more he enjoyed it the more of a run up he got each time, harder and harder. When you are a small kid a sheep ramming the shit out of you literally sends you flying.

      But I love the idiots, they are great!

      You clearly haven’t seen Black Sheep if you think people aren’t harmed by them

        Thanks for reminding me about the Violence of the Lambs.

        And if you haven’t seen it, give Zombeavers a watch.

      I want to add the Latin name for the bumblebee genus is Bombus, which in itself is a pretty strong argument.
