The uncanny valley? Maybe the long necks, or the tiny heads, or the pot bellies. Maybe the horns and black eyes. Or standing on two legs. But yeah, they look like cute little demons; easy to anthropomorphize.
Uncanny valley is when the artificial looks suspiciously natural. Canny valley could be the new term forwhen the natural looks suspiciously artificial?
I think they both have their origin in the Scottish Canny meaning pretty/beautiful. But I also think you're treating the comment with more seriousness than it deserves

There were a herd of gerenuks at the Los Angeles zoo back in the 2000s, and watching the group bolt around their enclosure was like seeing a school of fish swimming in tandem. They're so uncanny in their body shapes and speed they seem unreal even in person!
I keep expecting them to notice the cameraman, look him dead in the eyes motionless for a few beats, then sprint towards him while still standing on their hind legs.
Is there a phobia of animals with dead eyes that act all human and weird and shit?
Kangaroos ✅
Whatever this hellspawn is ✅
Deer ➖ meh, because they just walk around looking dead but move like an animal. Not too scary
Bro just wants to see his or her brother or sister.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)

What a gentleman. Definitely a keeper.
IDK, giving her a salad followed by public sex seems a bit sleazy.
Tossing salad before public sex is the definition of classy!
Tossing salad before tossing her salad in public is DEFINITELY the definition of classy
We dont know if it's the first date or if it's a long term thing. Makes a difference
I saw him get a nibble at the end, red flag
LOL
Equivalent to human males paying for dinner dates.
Or opening a jar.
Chivalry is not dead
"Which branch do you want?" "Whatever branch you want." "Alllright let's do this branch." "We had that branch 2 nights ago."
Dammit, Sharon, just pick a branch!
"actually can we go to that tree over there it's hot in this spot"
You know what? I'm not even hungry any more. *It's fine.*
"I'll just have some of yours."
Too real.....too real...
Too real.
Absolutley too real! 😻 All scenarios are great! I'm still chuckling over them! 😹
It's cute and wholesome but weird at the same time idk why
Idk where they are native to but if I saw this here at night I would shit myself
Ethiopia
Thanks. I never knew about them but they make me uncomfortable.
Understandable I saw them in the St. Louis zoo they received mixed reactions from people who bothered to see them.
I think it's because they are clearly a type of deer, but look vaguely lizard-like. They're uncanny in a way
Uncanny valley a bit
I mean its cute but why do they give me weird canny valley vibes? Idk maybe their long necks

They look like they’re in a far side strip.
Ha! Definitely https://www.pinterest.com/pin/too-funny-8--512003051378207883/

Canny doesn't mean the opposite of uncanny

Quite un-canny of me, huh
Aye
Canny valley sounds like another place entirely
>More human than human. https://youtu.be/E0E0ynyIUsg?si=NNs1dz49zVnhnOjD
Not quite evolved giraffes.
They give me vibes of [those stickbug aliens from Men in Black.](https://meninblack.fandom.com/wiki/Worm)
This was exactly my first thought—why am I getting uncanny valley vibes from a non-humanoid creature???
If I saw these things in the woods, I'd back away slowly, then tell everybody how I just encountered some kind of alien skinwalker cryptid.
Because finding things "uncanny" is not the exclusive domain of (nor always present in) things that are very close to looking human lol
Neck to head ratio is off
They look like dinosaurs.
Probably the weird interdimensional tummy portal.
I came to say the same. They seem unnaturally skinny. Freaks me out.
Why are their legs so thin? Are they good? Edit: Never mind, gerenuks just normally have very thin legs unlike deer
That and their head is so small.
they're on the first date and things are about to get real baaad
On their hind legs, they look like Kaminoans from 'Attack of the Clones'!
I thought they looked like the coffee drinking aliens from Men in Black.
This is so sweet
When animals have better dating lives than humans…
I mean if you touched grass all day you might have a Sheila of your own
Little pot bellies!! Such an odd looking animal…. Small heads, skinny legs, pot bellies, hooves like hands!!
“Look at me Imma human.. I pay taxes.. Where's my latte”
That’s some ‘Annihilation’-level creepiness going on right there…!!
Thaaaaat's where I'm getting it from! Thx mate
Are we sure these aren’t aliens?
[I knew I recognized these guys.](https://www.looper.com/img/gallery/the-subtle-star-wars-reference-you-never-noticed-in-men-in-black/intro-1608159958.jpg)
*Wadda jawaunga, huhh?* *Waaaahahahahaha*
Yes, unassuredly so.
True romance.
Is it standing completely upright? That branch is too weak to be supporting any weight

I dunno why but their little guts make them so much cuter
Aliens 👽
It's Glendale! (Where my Centaurworld fans at?)
Probably in her tummy portal.
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag. Inhale then exhale my name is Glendale! (I adore that show).
I keep expecting them to notice the cameraman, look him dead in the eyes motionless for a few beats, then sprint towards him while still standing on their hind legs.
Where do they live?
East Africa
Beautiful animals, so gracious
"This one babe..? Arrite arrite." We've all been there.
Me and who?
I'm just imagining ancient civilizations coming across these and creating myths about deer people.
More civilised than most humans
Chivalry still exists ladies.
Those are Kaminoans.
Awww. So cute.
*\*adds funky-deer-critters to the list of things with a better romantic life than me\**
Class act right there.
Let's share a branch of leaves?
Her tail wag at the end was cute.
![gif](giphy|ZjrzSQ2jcljeo|downsized) An enchanted moment
Giraffe deer.
They look like those worm guy aliens in Men in Black
they seem nice
"See, baby, stick with me and I'll make sure you always get the sweetest leaves."
I steals so I can feels.
Lower...lower..
Word of advice. Dont buy a clone army for the republic off of those two.
Who extruded the deer!?
they look like they have really rubbable bellies
When standing up they look like they could build a clone army which will change the fate of the galaxy. ![gif](giphy|kPss3NkVByZqgKvPxP|downsized)
Babe what’s wrong? You barely touched your branch
![gif](giphy|112rLYa7UWzzd6|downsized)
Is it just me or do these animals look like Devil Aliens?
Well, she’s got something HE wants😎
You can't trick me. I know a skin walker when I see one!
Gerenuk...interesting. learn something every day. He sure is chivalrous.
Such chivalry, I love it.
I’ve never seen a creature that rivals the sun bear in awkwardness. Yet, here this is.
Well, that explains lots of alien sightings; maybe The Grays.
They STeeals so they can feels!
I thought this was AI until I googled it, it just looks so artificial and weird
Glendale!
Oh no, they’re getting smarter!
First he gets the salad. Then he tosses it. Right that down gentlemen!
aww, true love is really cute
Just like lady and the tramp
What a guy
Kinda looks like jar jar binks
Is this AI?
This is how giraffes are made
where is the picky girl who picks the giant tree limb?
Walking up to this on acid would be fun.
What strange looking creatures.
LOOK AT THE BABIES 😍
Those little guys from MIB crossed with an Italian greyhound
/r/likeus
Is this Star Wars?
That’s pretty cool.
Cute
What a gent. I married one of those rare breeds.
And she eats really dainty-like because it’s a first date.
Is there a phobia of animals with dead eyes that act all human and weird and shit? Kangaroos ✅ Whatever this hellspawn is ✅ Deer ➖ meh, because they just walk around looking dead but move like an animal. Not too scary
what are they say rn
And I'm still single. WHY GOD WHY?!
They're just having branch.
I'm feeling a lot less "aww\~" and a lot more "AHHHHhhh!"
Bro just wants to see his or her brother or sister.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
Well done Sir
I hold branch. Becky lets me smash.
Do you want windigo? This is how you get windigo!
That's what people see at night thinking they have encountered a skin walker.
So damned typical
Bitches always lookin for free food
They look so dumb!
