Dolphins sleep with one eye open, and their offspring won’t sleep for the first 30 days after they’re born. Imagine the plight of their parents! Some animals have very strange sleeping habits. However, no matter how wild the animal is, they still manage to look cute when they’re sleeping.
At SmallJoys, we had fun compiling all these pictures of animals sleeping in weird places and positions. Take a look!
