Naked Mole Rat
The naked mole rat could be the ugliest animal in the world. Good thing they spend most of their lives underground. These guys can hardly see and use their giant teeth and jaws to dig extensive holes in the ground. They live in colonies like bees and have one queen who is responsible for all the reproduction.
