There are many wild animals in the world, but none with such beauty as the ones we’re featuring here today. Enjoy this list of the most beautiful wild animals in the world. Perhaps one day you’ll be able to see these wild animals in their natural habitat during your travels.
Lions
Powerful big cats with flamboyant manes; while known for their strength and hunting abilities, lions are also beautiful creatures, especially when you consider their dark coats and bright eyes.

Bengal Tiger
A subspecies of the tiger, these big cats are known to be extremely expensive due to their rarity and beauty – Bengal tigers have much more prominent stripes than other tiger subspecies. These cats typically live in warm areas like India.
Snow Leopard
Beautiful and rare creatures, snow leopards can be found in the mountains of central and southern Asia. The good news is that preservation efforts have made it so their numbers are growing!
Great Blue Heron
A large heron, great blue herons are generally found near bodies of water like swamps and rivers – and, since they’re carnivores, these birds will eat just about anything: fish, insects, and other small animals.

Orca
Orcas are one of the best-known and well-liked cetacean species due to their intelligence, family bonds, and close group hunting skills. They’re also known for being beautiful creatures with an appearance that resembles a large dolphin.
Kangaroo
A marsupial mammal that lives in Australia, kangaroos are large creatures with strong hind legs that allow them to leap at great heights and speeds.
Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey
A type of Old World monkey, the golden snub-nosed monkey is notable for its bright blue face. These monkeys are diurnal – which means they’re active during the day – and live in various habitats throughout central and southwestern China.
Red Panda / Bear-Cat
An omnivorous mammal, the red panda has many characteristics similar to both bears and cats. Red pandas are solitary animals that are typically shy around humans – but there’s no denying that these creatures have a certain aesthetic appeal.
Gorilla
An ape species, gorillas are large and powerful creatures that usually live together in groups of 20 individuals. They typically eat fruits, leaves, and other vegetation – though they have been known to kill members of other primate species if their own numbers are low.

Giant Panda
A close relative of the red panda, giant pandas are unsurprisingly close relatives to a number of other animals on this list. This beautiful creature is only found in limited parts of China and isn’t exactly easy to keep as a pet – which explains why they’re so expensive.
Leopard Seal
An aquatic mammal commonly found near Antarctica, leopard seals are huge predators with large jaws and razor-sharp teeth. These hunters typically prey on penguins and other small animals.
