Now scientists have described more than 1.6 million species of animals, but for some reason we are used to looking at the same ones. As a fight against this injustice, we decided to show you photos of outstanding animals, each of which is unusual in its own way. Some of them are of rare beauty, others were photographed at a delicate moment, and still others came here thanks to the stories that made them famous. Sit back, it will be interesting.
