  • Iguana on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#10) Iguana

    • Iguana

    Adult male iguanas will sometimes turn to cannibalism in extreme circumstances, including eating their own offspring or the young of others in the areas. The behavior was most commonly seen when the environment suffers from a drought. With normal food sources exhausted, the male iguanas will snack on juvenile members of their own species. The fact they are small and defenseless against the adults makes them easy targets. They probably resort to this as the adults are more likely to survive the harsh conditions.

  • Chimpanzee on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#9) Chimpanzee

    It is not currently known exactly why chimpanzee males will sometimes kill infants in their groups, but the apes are known to be highly aggressive and will occasionally attack each other. Due to their complex social structures and the fact that they are capable of planning and advanced emotions means they often get in fights, especially over resources and territory. Young chimpanzees are an easy target for adult males, even if they are their own children.

  • Black bass on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#5) Black bass

    • Micropterus

    Male sea bass will act in the same way as many other fish in terms of being a dedicated father. They diligently protect the eggs, building up nests and watching over them to ensure they remain safe. Unfortunately, this behavior quickly changes after the eggs begin to spawn and the vast majority of the newborn fish swim away. The few that remain behind become lunch for the dad who has so far been their protector. The impromptu meal acts as a way of gaining quick nutrients after spending a long period of time unable to hunt for other food.

  • Grizzly Bear on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#3) Grizzly Bear

    • Ursus arctos horribilis

    One of the things that really makes the grizzly bear stand out from other mammals is that grizzlies are prepared to eat their own cubs even when other food is readily available. Most other animals will only resort to cannibalism in desperate circumstances. These bears, though, are willing to kill and eat any young bear that enters their territory. As they are so protective of their territories, bear cubs have to be taught to stay out of areas that are home to other grizzlies.

  • Gelada Monkey on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#11) Gelada Monkey

    Like many other species of primate, gelada monkeys do not make particularly good fathers. They often engage in infanticide like chimpanzees and baboons, killing infants when taking over a group. However, they also make terrible dads to their own children. They simply do not care about the young members of their social group and will do almost nothing to provide for them or protect them against threats. Instead, all of this work is left to the mothers, who keep a careful guard over their young for the first six months of their lives.

  • Hanuman Langur on Random Worst Dads In Animal Kingdom

    (#6) Hanuman Langur

    Much like lions, Hanuman langurs have been observed killing infants. The males usually carry out this behavior after taking over a new group of females. They see the young as a potential future threat to their leadership and so often cull them to get rid of this threat. Not only that but it also allows them to mate with the females in the group much sooner than they otherwise would. Like several other mammals, langur females cannot ovulate while lactating. Killing their infants means that they can get pregnant, allowing the males to pass on their genes.
