Many animals unfortunately suffer from a rather negative image in human culture, regarded by us as frightening, disgusting or just plain lowly. Nature, however, has no 'vermin' or 'pests' -all things have their place in the natural order of things, and in most cases, the benefits of an organism far outweigh its (accidental) inconveniences.
Even animals many of us find 'ugly' are only demonstrating the perfect body shape for their particular ecological niche. Open up your mind a little, and you just might find some beauty in something that once made your skin crawl.
