If we find animals different from us and historically dangerous animals SCARY (many legs, no legs, insects, venomous species, etc), why do we find FLUFFY and FURRY animals CUTE when WE are practically hairless? Why are bears cute when they have historically posed great threat to us?

Question

Lot of hairy and fluffy looking organisms are also dangerous too… like those worms, bears, some plants, etc

Answer 1

As a man starting to get up there in age (OK just 38) I can assure I am far from practically hairless. I’m turning into basically a bear at this point, hair started growing on my back at 34. Chest was already there. I’m basically hairy every where except palms and soles of my feet.
