Read on to discover the creatures we have ranked as the top five ugliest animals in existence!

Number Five: The Mexican Burrowing Frog. This nasty little frog looks like just a gooey, purple blob of slime- which is why it belongs on our list.

In addition to Mexico, they have also been known to live in Central America and the United States. Although, you may never see one; they live in underground tunnels and only come up to play in the rain. …show more content…
Also known as the monkfish. This nightmarish fish is known primarily for its large head and adaptive lure that dangles in front of its face. You may recognize him from his appearance in Finding Nemo. This lure, attached to its dorsal spine, calls the attention of its prey before it the fish snatches it up with its tiny, sharp teeth. It lurks in the darkest depths of the Atlantic Ocean usually, and is also observed to have brown flesh covered in warts that serves as a great camouflage.

Number Three: The Fruit Fly. Often, the unattractiveness of the Fruit Fly is simply brushed off, because it is so small that we humans don’t have the sensory abilities to be disgusted by it- from far away, that is. After a close-up, the Fruit Fly becomes even more heinous. They are abundant on almost every continent, save for Antarctica.
