Caution: Adorable animals with bloody nature 

A list of adorable-looking but brutal animals has been gaining popularity in online portals in Korea.

These animals, all of which are not found in Korea, include polar bears, rhinoceroses, wolverines, African elephants and grey bears.

The polar bear, no matter how agreeably portrayed in Coca-Cola commercials, is the ultimate predator in the ecological pyramid throughout the polar region. They devour seals and other mammals when hungry, which is no exception to three-month-old cubs.

The rhinoceros may look meek with a wrinkly face and cute buckeyes, but the animal never hesitates to bunt trespassers with their horns.

The wolverine, widely known here through U.S. film “Wolverine” starring Hugh Jackman, are not only blood-thirsty but stinky, making other equally fierce predators give way when hunting.
