Aggressive Yawn Hierarchy

In addition to beautiful singing, improvisational dancing, and excessive cuteness, one of the Poo Bird's most prominent features is her aggressive yawning style.  Her yawns are likely to come out of nowhere, strike in a split-second, and seemingly defy logic with their size, length, and intimidation factor.  We at the blog decided to take a look at where the Poo Bird's yawns rank in the animal kingdom's aggressive yawn hierarchy.  Here are the results.

1.  The Hippo.  The Hippo is the undisputed yawning champion.  Note the size of the yawn and long distance between top and bottom jaw.  The hippo knows it has a sweet yawn and likes to show it off.  It even has a board game dedicated to its yawning ability (Hungry Hungry Hippos).

 

2.  The Poo Bird.  The Poo Bird declined an invitation to show off her yawning skills, but the graphics department did a bang up job depicting her unleash one of her beauties.  Congrats to the bird for having the second most aggressive yawn in the animal kingdom.  (please note this picture is not meant to be an accurate portrayal of the bird, this not nearly as cute as the bird nor is the outfit something the bird would wear- looks a bit Canadian tuxedo-ish).

 

3. The Gorilla

 

4. The Sea Lion.  Please note that sea lions  pride themselves on having not only big but also extremely loud yawns.

 

5.  The Orangutan

 

6. Brook Shields

7. The Tapir.  The Tapir pictured is about to show off the illusive, yawn sneeze combination.

 

8. Puppy

9.  Baby.  Please note that the baby is the Poo Bird's favorite animal.  Well, actually "baby anything," is the Poo Bird's favorite animal.

 

10.  The Rabbit

 

Honorable Mention.  Kittens.
