Animals That May Just Be The Absolute Biggest Of Their Species

The Ardennes is one of the oldest breeds of draft horses that dates back to ancient Rome. They have heavy bones and thick legs, which made them the perfect breed for work. These massive horses can weigh over 2,000 pounds, and they are magnificent. 

“You just wait and see; I’m going to be so big one day.” That chunky puppy proved everyone right and grew to be twice the size of his older sister. He looked so grumpy as a puppy because everyone kept saying how little he was, but no one is saying that anymore. 

Just when you thought you had seen big horses, think again. This Belgium draft horse is about 6’6,” and it can weigh around 2,800 pounds. Despite its enormous size, it seems like a gentle giant, and the girl is not afraid of its size. Like the Trojan horse, you can fit the whole Greek army in that thing. 

“Why can’t I sit on your lap? I’m not that heavy. It will just be like a warm blanket.” This big boy seems sad that he can’t sit on his dad’s lap, and he is giving him the silent treatment for saying no. Can you imagine how loud their barks must be and how long it takes to bathe them? 

Have you ever seen such a round and chunky cat before? This beefy boy is so big he can wear children sized sweaters. His head is also bigger than his owners, but he doesn’t look so scary. This is the kind of cat we would want to cuddle because it looks so warm and sleepy. 

Although this dog might look big and scary, he is a good boy with a sad story. His family abandoned this wolfdog at a kill shelter when he got too big for them to handle. Before it was too late, a sanctuary took him and gave him a happy home where he could live his best life. 

“Nothing to see here, just a bunch of regular cows doing regular cow things.” This massive cow is six feet tall, and it stands out from the crowd like nothing we have seen before. The other cows clear a path for it because they are too nervous about being stepped on. 

Have you ever seen a cat that looks more like a human baby than this? It even has a little backpack for all of its belongings like its laser pointer, treats, and catnip. It likes to go on trips to the store with its owner because everyone admires him and his fluffiness. How much do you think he weighs? 

Animals with antlers or horns use them to fight and protect themselves, but sadly it can also attract the attention of hunters poachers. The one in the bottom right corner was hunted for its beautiful horns, and it didn’t stand a chance. His unique drill bit horns are now hanging on someone’s wall as a decoration. 

If you are unfamiliar with the Maine Coon, it is the largest domesticated cat breed, and it acts more like a dog than a cat. Considering it is the size of an average dog, it is not that shocking. The only downside to these big boys is their loud meows that people will be able to hear all over the neighborhood. 

We have heard of lap dogs and cats before, but we never knew about lap toads. This toad has never skipped a day at the gym, and we think he is juicing to get this big. He looks mean, but he is also holding her hand in the most sincere way. It’s hard to get a read on him. 

Who knew that house cats could be so massive?! No wonder the Egyptians once worshiped them; they are fascinating. This one is named Chronos, and he is a titan. He is a Norwegian Forest cat, and they are big like the Maine Coon. 

This pitbull looks like he is the bouncer at the club telling his puppies, “You know the rules – no ID, no entry.” This guy can beat up any of the other dog dads whose kids mess with his puppies. This dog hits the gym every day and can bench press more than most people. 

Everyone meet Fred. He is a beefy boy, and people often think he is pregnant because of his size, but he just gained a few pounds over the holidays. He had one too many cheat days, and now he is on a diet. He loves attention, but watch out for your small children because he will sit on them. 

Remember the Coca Cola bear? This is him today. He let himself go a bit after they stopped using him in the commercials, and the acting jobs dried up. He felt like there was nothing left to do in his life but eat, so he got a little heavier than most people remember. 

Sadie, the squirrel, is preparing for winter hibernation. She is bulking up to be fat and warm for the upcoming snowy months, and she had to eat a lot to get to her goal weight. So far, she ate at least three pumpkins in one sitting, and it doesn’t look like she is stopping any time soon. 

The prophecy has spoken, and the chubby orange cat has returned to fulfill his destiny. He doesn’t know how he got on the roof, and he is angry that there is no one to help him down. How will he get more food to stay chubby if he is stuck on the roof? 

Patrick was the world’s oldest and largest wombat. The average wombat lives for around 15 years, but Patrick lived to be 32-years-old, which is double their life expectancy. He lived a full life and weighed a whopping 88 pounds. You can see that even the handler struggles to pick him up. 

People might think it’s not kind to sheer lambs, but it is actually good for them because it allows them to cool off. However, this fluffy lamb named Shrek avoided sheering for six years, and it looks like he could make plenty of sweaters to keep people warm in the winter. 

“Steroids; They’re grrreat!” Tigers are already scary because they can rip you apart in seconds, but this one is even more intimidating. Does this tiger train with the Rock and Arnold Schwarzenegger? It seems like tigers sleep all day, so how did he get this swol? 

When this little girl was feeling blue, her big bunny came to comfort her. It could be consoling her or pinning her to the seat; it’s hard to tell because it is so bulky. This type of rabbit is called a Flemish Giant, and it is one of the largest breeds. They can weigh upwards of 15 pounds. 

If giants had pets, this dog would be the perfect breed for them because they wouldn’t care about the slobber, and their houses are fit for something this size. Although they are big and slobber, they are the best companions and big cuddly babies. 

Just like Tony the Tiger, Winnie the Pooh has been bulking up so he can protect the Hundred Acre Woods from woozles. He doesn’t need help from Piglet, Eeyore, or Tigger because his muscles will keep everyone safe. His honey diet must be working wonders for him. 

This big bear looks like a pillow pet that would bite your head off if you tried to rest your head on it. It must have found a bunch of full fridges to get this thick while living in the wild. How many houses did it have to break into to be this big for hibernation? 

They said they needed a bigger boat in Jaws, but they clearly hadn’t seen this situation. These sea lions were tired of the water and wanted a place to dry off, but it looks like they all need their individual boats. They are the perfect snacks for a shark the size of Jaws. 

If there were a cat royal family, this one would be the king. He looks like the rich villain in a Disney movie about cats. Everyone is envious of his fluffy coat, and he pays people to be his faithful servants, but people soon realize how mean he is, and they plot to take him down. 

It’s the last photo of your life, and this is what you see walking towards you. Everything after that goes dark, and this is what the rescuers find on the camera roll. It doesn’t even have to attack because it would give anyone a heart attack immediately. 

Valonia ventricosa, otherwise known as bubble algae, is the largest single-celled organism. Just imagine the mitochondria on this thing – remember what those are from ninth-grade science? Although it is something that lives in the ocean, it still looks like a giant grape that would taste amazing. 

If you saw this thing slithering by, you would be in for quite the fright. While it may be harmless, it looks likes something you would see in an alien monster movie. These snails continue to slowly grow throughout their lives and they live up to ten years. 

We don’t know how this dog tucked its legs under its body so tightly, but it turned itself into a fluffy ball. With the snow on its back, it looks more like a hedgehog than a dog. Sonic seems to have let himself go after all these years. 

Queen Daenerys needs to get her dragon under control because it is trying to escape again. If you saw this monitor lizard climbing a gate, would you run for your life or stop to take a picture. It’s big enough to have its own key for the gate so that it can get in and out easier. 

The jungle neighborhood got a little rough, so Baloo had to muscle up or become a victim of the scary surroundings. How much honey did this bear have to eat for it to grow muscles like that. Can you imagine how much bigger it must look from head-on? 

This sheep is ready to be sheered, and it will make plenty of wool blankets, coats, gloves, and everything else needed to stay warm in the winter. He is a fluffy brick, but under all of that, he is probably not that big. Once he gets shaved, he won’t be so massive. 

He might be a lap dog at heart, but he is not meant to sit on anyone. After having way too many treats, this big guy needs to go on a diet because he is too heavy for his size, and the vet said he needed to lose a few pounds. He looks like he just saw a fresh plate of chicken. 

Did Geiko start paying their spokesperson in food, or did he voluntarily let himself go? It looks like he is retaining too much water, and one poke will cause him to explode. It’s probably best that no one tries it because that person would be in the splash zone. 

Pumba found friends, and they decided to look for bugs in the dumpster. He had been working on his arms and upper body all these years, but he forgot to do any squats. His legs look tiny and fake compared to the rest of him. 

Polar bears are adorable to watch on the discovery channel, but when you realize how massive their claws are, it makes them a little less cute. These creatures are actually black despite what everyone thinks. Their skin is very dark under the translucent fur that reflects white. 

Hide your eggs, hide your hens because this rooster is coming to steal your women. Roosters are already scary and aggressive when they are small, so imagine how much more frightening they can be when he is this size. 

The holidays are a time when everyone eats a lot of food because there are different family meals and delicious holiday desserts. It’s during those times when people tend to pack on the pounds. This is what most of us will look like once the holiday season is over. 

Remember when the second worst thing about 2020 was the hornets coming to America? Did everyone just forget about those things, or should we still be afraid? The giant Asian murder hornet is two inches long, and they destroy honeybee hives within an hour by decapitating each bee. 

We should probably be happy that this monster snake dined mainly on fish. They must have been pretty massive fish though, perhaps even ones that are elsewhere in this very article. Nonetheless, it’s enough to make your skin crawl knowing that these gigantic creatures were out there living somewhere, and somehow even worse that they could be hiding in the murky depths of streams and rivers, just waiting for us to dip our toes in.
