Photo Comparisons That Reveal the True Size of Animals

A lot of the time, we get so wrapped in our own lives and we have our eyes glued to a computer or a phone screen so often that we forget how the incredible this planet can be.

We are surrounded by beauty and nature and animals on all sides, but unless we’re actively seeking it out, we become oblivious to all the great things that are right under our noses.

I feel like the photos you’re about to see are the kind that we should seek out and look at every once in a while so we can truly appreciate how amazing life can be and how humans are just a small part of the planet. The animals are actually running this place, we’re just here taking up some of their space.

So get away from the rat race for a few minutes and enjoy these amazing pics of HUGE animals.

3,000 pounds, right there.

Were you aware of this?

11. That thing is a SALAMANDER.

My mind is blown.

The critically endangered giant Chinese Salamander (largest salamander and amphibian in the world). It apparently sometimes smells like pepper and makes noises that sound like small children. Scientist for size- from HumanForScale

12. Those folks probably got a bit of a scare.

Let’s hope the tour guide knows what he’s doing…
