These Adorable Photos of Baby Animals in the Snow Will Brighten Your Day

Let's be real: it's pretty hard for animals to not look totally adorable at any moment of the day. No matter what kind of animal it is or what it's doing, it probably looks like something you want to snuggle with. But there's something about an animal covered in snow that is just extra cute. The powdery snow covering their fur and landing on their little noses looks both magical and sweet, making them seem like the picture-perfect subject of a winter postcard or photograph.

There's also the fact that some animals look totally out of their element in the snow. You expect to see something like a bear or a deer in a snowy landscape, but a duck? Not so much. Or think about a cute tiny puppy trotting along through a snow-covered sidewalk, disappearing every once in a while in an especially large snow bank. It's almost too much!

We could all use a little something to smile about, so why not look through some of the cutest photos of animals in snow? They'll make you feel happy, get you in the winter spirit, and maybe even make you wish for a snowstorm.
