When you think about it, we have some awfully strange-looking animals on this beautiful planet of ours. From elephants with ultra-long noses to giant flightless birds, it’s clear that nature has already been pretty creative when designing Mother Earth’s inhabitants.
But what if, in an even weirder twist, some of the world’s best-known animals didn’t have necks at all?
That’s the question that the creator of the Instagram account @nonecks envisioned when they began editing photos of animals to have, well, no necks. It’s a weird concept with even weirder results, but it’s unexpectedly hilarious… especially when you see the animals who have really long necks in real life!
