Why are we genetically programmed to find animals so cute? I would think as an omnivore finding your food cute would be counterproductive.
My hypothesis is that we are supposed to eat meat as a last resort and prefer vegetables. So their cuteness acts as a deterrent so we prefer them less...
Though the fact that meat tastes so good would seem to be a counterargument to that theory...

@freemo well, the proportions of babies (at least mammals) are hard wired into the brain to look cute.

@bonifartius I find everything in this pciture cute except for the top right human
@freemo for me the baby variants are "cute" while the normal variants invoke more of "fellow being"-feel for me :)
