I thought they were Caymans, but when I googles that, I got a reptile.

I thought they were squirrels in the thumbnail, the coloring is very similar.
Marianne R. Nov 5, 2009, 1:27pm EST
They're bigger than beagles, so that would be a huge squirrel.

They're cute. I think we all need a few afternoon naps.
Marian Meg Phillips Nov 5, 2009, 3:42pm EST
I'm pretty sure they are wallabys. They come in a lot of varieties, colors and so on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallaby
Marianne R. Nov 5, 2009, 4:58pm EST
No, they're not those. These don't look like kangaroos.

They look like a combo of at least 3 different animals : - )

Victoria H. Nov 11, 2009, 10:45am EST
Dude! They're freaky looking, whatever they are!!! It's like God decided to just throw a bunch of other animals together to make that thing!
phil w. Nov 13, 2009, 12:38pm EST
I believe that is a Patagonian Mara ( or hare ) !
