Do You Recognize These Animals Without Hair?
14 Waxed Wombat
This baby wombat might look as though he’s had a full-body wax, but the truth is that when a wombat is born, it is born with a thin, waxy skin that contains no fur. As a result, baby wombats are unable to keep themselves warm on their own. It seems as though this little guy doesn’t mind, however, and he’ll happily give you a wave of his paw. Too cute! Within months, the wombat develops that thick, brown body of fur that they are well-known for. So all is not lost with this baldie!
