Life on mirth! Who said animals don't have a sense of humour?
Sometimes you just have to see the funny side of life - and these animals certainly do.
Following the example of the ‘happypotamus’ featured in the Mail recently, there are lots of other creatures which also boast a funny bone.

From delighted dolphins to amused apes, something’s certainly put a smile on these animals’ faces...

 A Lego model of a frog dissection created by Dave Kaleta, a kindergarten teacher from Chicago. He created the anatomically correct specimen as part of a competition in which he was just given the brief 'Lego anatomy'. He said: "I had a couple of different ideas that involved Rembrandt's Anatomy Lesson, but that was already taken by another competitor, so decided that dissecting a frog was a more universal experience that lots of people could relate to"...

...It took Dave seven hours to build the frog over three days. He says "I went up to the science department to see if they had a model I could look at, but they didn't, so I culled image reference from online. I have no idea how many pieces are included, but it's probably between 1000-2000"
