According to science, animals’ emotions are much less diverse and intense than those of humans. But when we see the way they react to something new, whether it’s exciting or scary, it seems that have plenty of emotion. These animals remind us what it’s like to experience something new for the very first time.
Smalljoys has found some awesome photos that show us just how expressive animals can be when experiencing something new. We have to admit, it’s really hard to stop being amazed by them.
