      I’ve not properly seen one (only heard it and seen it moving in the trees), but the Aye-Aye is probably the ‘creepiest’ animal I’ve ever seen. They live in Madagascar, they are a primate but have rodent like teeth and one very thin finger which they use to extract insects from holes in trees. There is nothing like them on the planet, but they are endangered and in need of lots more research and protection.
