10 Most Unique Animal Species You Won’t Believe Exist Today

2. Superb Bird of Paradise

This species of bird has a fierce competition amongst males for mating, due to significantly and unusually low population of females. This has led the species to have one of the most bizarre and elaborate courtship displays in the entire world.

The male first attracts a female with a loud call. After the curious female approaches, his folded black feather cape and blue-green breast shield leaps upward and spreads widely and symmetrically around its head, instantly transforming the frontal view of the bird into a spectacular ellipse-shaped creature.

1. Venezuelan Poodle Moth

This animal doesn’t seems to belong to the planet Earth. Instead, highly resembles a creature from some kind of Hollywood Sci-fi movie. However, what you’re seeing in above picture is totally legit. It is a new species of moth discovered in 2009 by Dr. Arthur Anker in the Gran Sabana region of Venezuela. This animal is extremely weird and perhaps the most peculiar of all time.
