    Having nominated numbers 2, 6 and 7, I now have a dilemma! Animal's orangutan photo is maybe more of a masterpiece than cute as such. Numbers 6 and 7 both depict the wonder of motherhood. I've chosen number 6 as I prefer orangutans to lions!

    I don't think either 2 or 6 are 'cute', that's not to say they are not very special photographs, better than cute!

    I would agree, but everybody seems to have different definition of "cute". :) It can be a "cute baby face", it can be a "cute way of doing something", you often hear people saying "cute", when an animal does something that resembles something people usually do.. like gorilla examining its nails.. (which is absolutely fine, all these pictures were nominated by ZooChatters, so.. ;) )

    I've just looked up 'cute' in my dictionary. The definition is 'a tiny orangutan hand, especially when firmly grasped by an adult's' ;)

    Alternatively, cuteness is in the eye of the beholder.

    We'll have to agree to differ on this one :)

    Cutest....

    My two year old grandson always identifies a certain black aquatic bird as a 'Cute'.

    Had I been able to vote for multiple, 3, 7 and 8 would have all got my vote of cuteness. As it stands, I voted for 7 :)

    I know, it´s hard.. ;) But if I had created a multiple-choice poll, everybody would vote for every picture ;)
