Today we'll be looking at the 6 cutest animal videos of 2017 so far. We've got parrots, tigers, hippos and so much more! If you're looking for adorable, we've got it in spades, so get scrolling!

Before we begin, I'd like to give a huge shout out to my co-author and partner in crime, Natalie Rader!

Without her, none of these videos would have been made available for your viewing pleasure (and you'd probably be getting a bunch of dog videos).

#6. Cute Elephants playing with visitors

I mean, this is just adorable. Who wouldn't love cuddles with Dumbo? On behalf of our grandmother (an avid collector of all things elephant), we wanted everyone to feel a little elephant love.

The elephant napping to a lullaby made us coo with big adorable heart emojis. <3 <3 <3

#5. Baby Fiona plays with water

Baby Fiona has been all the rage here in Cincinnati, so we thought it only best to include a cute video of her in action for all the world to see. Born 6 weeks premature, this beautiful creature is a walking miracle.

For more information, feel free to check out the Baby Fiona Blog.

#4. Playful Baby Wolf

Shadow, a grey wolf pup, is absolutely adorable. It's so nice seeing a puppy getting the pampering they deserve, and this playful pup was just too delightful to pass up.

While normally not so friendly in the wild, it's extraordinary to see how growing up alongside humans can establish such strong friendships between animal and man.

#3. Baby Leopard and Puppy are best friends

Who said dogs and cats couldn't be friends? Watching these two play is nothing short of a spectacle. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! :)

On a side note, yay me for sneaking another dog into this list!

#2. Wild Horses Playing

Natalie loves horses, and watching these two frolic about was amazing. They're even dressed for the big show.

And without further ado,

#1 A parrot and his pet baby! (Or is the other way around? Hmm...)

Soooooooo freaking adorable! The boy and his parrot literally give each other harmless little nibbles. And the parrot defends the child when the cameraman tries to stick their hand too close to his friend! Take that, paparazzi!

We hope you enjoyed the cute animal videos that we found, and look forward to doing another edition soon. If you see some (or capture!) some cute animal videos this year, be sure to send them our way via email to radeda@yahoo.com. If you can, please send links to the videos. We'll gladly look them over and choose the cutest of the bunch!

Please feel free to drop a comment and definitely pass this along to your friends. Let the cuteness take over the Internet! We could all use a breath of fresh air and laughter.
