Animals are perhaps the world’s best natural stress-relievers, and for good reason. No matter what they’re doing, they bring us endless smiles and a rush of serotonin that few things can match—whether they’re being sleepy, cuddly, or tearing through the house with the zoomies. But nothing quite compares to when they’re just completely, unabashedly goofy.
That’s exactly the spirit of r/AnimalsBeingDerps. From dogs caught gleefully inhaling air out of car windows to raccoons casually lounging in someone’s backyard, it’s a delightful parade of animals being hilariously, wonderfully themselves. Scroll down—your mood will thank you.
