20 Hilariously unphotogenic animals

Getting the perfect photo isn’t always easy—after all, not everyone’s a natural in front of the camera. Luckily, apps like Snapchat and Instagram offer filters and tricks to help us find our best angles.

But some creatures—like these wonderfully awkward animals—just haven’t quite mastered that picture-perfect, Instagram-ready pose.

No One Looks Cute When They’re Eating

This poor bunny was probably in the middle of enjoying a snack when someone suddenly got way too close for a photo. Or maybe they were going for a stylish shot—and completely missed the mark.

Girls Night!

Ah, the classic bar selfie—everyone’s convinced they’re nailing it, but really, it’s just a chaotic snapshot of a crew that probably should’ve called it quits a few drinks earlier.

The Social Anxiety Is Real With This One

You’re stuck in a corner, torn between hoping someone will break the ice and quietly wishing everyone would just leave you be. Those awkward glances? Yeah, they’re just part of the whole vibe.

The Sun Is Too Bright

That exact moment when the sun feels like it’s assaulting your soul right as you wake up—no thanks. Curtains shut tight, blanket pulled over your head, and straight back to snoozeville it is.

“Just Hanging Out With My Friends”

Curious about what’s happening in this photo? The cat looks just as baffled but is rolling with it anyway. Honestly, it’s not a bad picture—the kitty still manages to look super adorable.

This Fish Looks Shocked And Upset

It’s like they got caught doing something that they shouldn’t have been doing. Not only did they get caught, but there is also photographic evidence. Clearly something fishy is going on.

What Lovely Eyes

This is what happens when you aim for a candid, carefree selfie—it rarely turns out that way, does it? No worries, there’s always next time!

They Look Like They’ve Reached Their Breaking Point

Just moments after this photo was taken, that cat probably zoomed off into a high-speed frenzy, racing around the house like a maniac. If you’ve ever had a cat, you totally get how true this is.

Is That A Yummy Pumpkin?

This is an actual photo of someone after their Uber Eats are dropped off and they finally sit back down to watch their stories. Let’s be real, we’ve all eaten chicken nuggets like this.

What Is Going On Here?

See? This is exactly why angles make all the difference. Normally cute and camera-ready, this seal looks downright awful when photographed from the wrong viewpoint. Seriously, this is a bad shot.

This Is What It Looks Like When You Laugh At Your Own Jokes

Especially when you’re the only one laughing, or you start chuckling before you even finish the joke. Yeah, we get it—you think you’re hilarious. Now can we please just move on from this?

Is This Every Man Caught In A Lie?

I can hear the ‘wows’ from over here. There’s no talking your way out of this one. In reality, someone was just lucky enough to catch this bear in the middle of a yawn.

“Say Cheese!”

There is a lot of teeth in this picture, pup. It looks like a picture that your mom wants to take over the holidays and make everyone sit together when everyone low-key hates one another.

The Twist No One Saw Coming

This is everyone when their favorite show takes a weird twist that they aren’t sure about. Hopefully, the rest of the season is posted so this little guy can work through it.

“They’re Making That Face Again, Aren’t They?”

We all have that one friend who will ruin every picture they’re in, no matter what. It doesn’t make us love them less, it just makes them kind of annoying some of the time.

Snacking Makes Everyone Happy

If only eating an apple was this stimulating for all of us. This is probably the face most of us make when we take that first, sweet sip of our iced coffee in the morning.

Those Are Some Unfortunate Teeth

At least this llama looks like it might be soft to pet… but that might be their only redeeming quality because between the eyes and the teeth they’re kind of terrifying looking.

“Hey, Look At Me For A Second”

Don’t be that friend who takes a picture of your friends in an ambush. This is the age of the internet. Not even the pictures you delete are actually gone forever.

Where Are They Looking?

When you stop and think about it, this could actually be a super useful skill. It would make multitasking—like binge-watching Netflix, scrolling through your phone, and snacking—all at once, so much easier to handle.

Is This You After A Long Day At Work?

After a long day of working, you come home, and you wanna pass out, but first, you gotta take off your makeup. This is the face you see staring back at you when you start that nightly routine.
