This fluffy animal is a lesson in consent.

Judging from the fur, it is soft and squishy.

Judging from the head, it has a similar bite force to a beaver.

...and now I shall learn this new (to me) creature! Thnx

Humans really are destroying everything they can comfortably hug whilst simultaneously making themselves the most unhuggable creatures.

It's like when I learned about my favorite animal, the golden jellyfish, and immediately learned that so many people learning about the golden jellyfish were the reason it was being destroyed...
