With a name that means "Earth Wolf," the aardwolf is a cute little critter. The live in burrows and eat bugs. Tons and tons of bugs. You can find this cousin to the hyena in the southern and eastern portions of Africa.

#5 The Golden Brushtail Possum

At any given time while traveling around the cities of Australia you will probably run into the Golden Brushtail Possum. They are like raccoons in America in that they are seen as dumpster diving pests. If they are pests they are the cutest little, stuffed animal looking pest ever.

#6 The Golden Mole

The South African Golden Mole is an amazing little creature. They live underground so they don't need eyes which is why they don't have any and their ears are so small you might think they didn't have any either. Their claws allow them to move through sand as easily as a fish in water. Neat.
