Top 8 Funniest Animal Name

Animal names are given by the animal founder and scientist, but you know if animal founders and scientist can also be wacky right. For some reasons, many animal in the world got weird name. For example, there is a beetle called Forest Cockchafer, or even a spider called Aptostichus Barackobamai! But these animal names are weirder than those. Here's Top 8 Weirdest Animal Names.

8. PUDDINGWIFE WRASSE

Puddingwife Wrasse, or sometimes just called the Puddingwife, is a cute and beautiful animal with a weird and ridiculous name. If its a Puddingwife, then it means their husband is a pudding. But since when do pudding get married? They never does! Puddings just created without a gender then eaten by humans. But Puddingwife is NOT a pudding. Its a fish. And married with the same species and have normal eggs and normal fry. They not married to puddings. The weirdest gender name of this species is actually the male! It's called male puddingwife. Wife is a male? This name is so weird. 

7. BARE-FACED GO-AWAY-BIRD

The Bare-Faced Go-Away-Bird is a bird with the weirdest name and probably one of the longest. Its weird because first their face is black, referring to some big chest-pounding hairy people in Congo that has a silver back and only eat plants. Second, its called go-away-bird, and that's mean they want anyone that's in their territory to... well, go away! (Or probably going to go away when humans call them). The BFGAB calls are like haa! haa! haa! and also like gwa! gwa! gwa! If you just called this bird, the bird will look at you, give a middle finger, and says "Stop calling me! You sh*t-eating son of a b*tch!" Then go away! So that's why they called go-away-birds.

6. HUMMINGBIRD HAWK-MOTH

Now this one is so confusing. Is it a hummingbird, a hawk, or a moth? Well its actually a moth. It's called hummingbird because they flies and suck nectars like a hummingbird, called moth because its a moth, and called hawk because... well, I don't know. Although we believe they only found in the Asian mainland (include northern Southeast Asia), northern and eastern Europe, and northern Africa, but the Hummingbird Hawk-Moth ever spotted in North America and Malaysia. Well although the name's weird its still beautiful to look. Right?

5. AGRA CADABRA

I believe a 100% that the one that gives this guy a name is a magician or something. Agra Cadabra is a ground beetle, that the name often confused with the famous magic spell, Abracadabra. Its like when the magician going to perform a trick, the magician will says "For today's magic trick, I'm going to take a rabbit out of my small, black hat" then the magician says the spell "Agra Cadabra!" when the magician take something from the hat, the magician says "F*ck, its a beetle, why am I always doing this". Hope this be a lesson for you that wants to be a magician. Don't ever says a wrong magic spell, or you will embarrass yourself because of the cursed f*ckin' beetle. Oh yeah, the Agra Cadabra also have an also weird-named cousin, the Agra Vation.

4. PINK FAIRY ARMADILLO

In the weird name game, armadillos will surely wins. This is a Pink Fairy Armadillo, an animal native to Argentina and also the smallest armadillo species. This guy also have one of the funniest animal name in the world. Is it weird? It is pink, but it didn't look like a fairy to me, they didn't have any wings or magic wands. It looks more like a salmon that ready to put in a sushi. Pink Fairy Armadillos have an armor shell but is not for protecting them from predators, it's for their thermoregulation. They buried themselves when a predator approach. This cute animal is not only weird in the name, but also because is not a fairy but named a fairy.

3. SOMALI WILD ASS

Wild ass? Really? This beautiful creatures are called wild asses? Well you can call it a donkey, but most websites and encyclopedias more likely to call them ass than a donkey (this is pretty funny). Native to Somalia, the Somali Wild Ass is a critically endangered animal that looks like a donkey version of Quagga. It's the rarest ass and the most endangered ass. Just by reading its name, you will think is a wild butt living Somalia, aren't you? Well, Somali Wild Asses have the weirdest donkey name, beating the domestic ass (donkey) itself. Asses will definitely win the weird name competition.

2. SCREAMING HAIRY ARMADILLO

Screaming Hairy Armadillo is the cutest (and the weirdest named) armadillo in the world. It's named "screaming" because its always squeal when being handed (man it so cute). Screaming Hairy Armadillos have lots of hair all over their body and it is the most slender armadillo in the world. Its habitat range is covering 4 countries (Argentina, Paraguay, Bolivia, and small parts of Brazil), and they can be found in the Gran Chaco and Pampas area. Every time you carry this cute little guy, it will get cuter because it beginning to squeal for help. Aww.... It so cute, but still the name is weird.

1. SLIPPERY D*CK

Who the heck named this animal Slippery D*ck, huh? No dicks are slippery (probably), and no animals can beat this fish in a weird name competition. Slippery D*cks covers itself with a sticky mucus as a defense mechanism (if you know what I mean). They know to change color when they reach its adult size and ready to f*ck any animals that bother them during mating season. Both slippery d*ck's sexes (I though they only have one gender, if you know what I mean) has different body color while all of the juveniles have the same body color: white, so that's make the parents that has both female and male juvenile can often forgot which is which. All in all, this fish got the weirdest animal name in the world, and also, the most confusing juveniles.
