Aardcucumbers must be cute, though. One can only imagine.

But still not as cute as an ambulatory watermelon.

What a delightful portrait of domestic bliss. These charming reformed carnivores sound like true aardapples of the earth. Or maybe I mean aardcucumbers:

Not as cute as those baby watermelon tapirs though.

"The most solitary of all the spotted hyena’s relatives is the aardwolf. Instead of hunting or scavenging meat, they have shifted to a diet of termites. A male and female aardwolf will live as a monogamous pair, caring for their young and defending their termite mounds from intruders."
