Yup. Its human.
Next strangest mammal is a type of bat. They deviate the most from common form.
Strangest vertebrate would be the japanese hellbender.
Strangest invertebrate would be the barnacle.
Strangest bacterium would be Wolbachia.

The esquilax. The horse with the head of a rabbit, and the body of a rabbit.

 

...surgically grafted to two different parts of its body.

 

The Platypus is rather strange looking. It's like a duck/beaver cross that lays eggs and has a venemous claw on it's rear feet. The males keep thiers' into adulthood but females loose thiers after they reach reproductive age.

 

The shoebill, african bird with malicious smile

 

A cuttlefish can do some very interesting things with its colors.

 

cockroaches ...

 

Strangest, the bomabadier beetle.
Stranger, me for answering this thread.
Stupidest, you for reading me.

Smartest, whomever knows why.
Speaking of which, the bola spider is a magnificent specimen in its hunting technique.

The strangest animal in the world is a two-legged fuckwad with a large pimple on its nose, a backpack strapped over its shoulder and a computer role-playing game on its mind.
Its pasty white skin and oily hair is its distinguishing marker and when it vocalizes its throat crackles and strains as the eyes dart to avoid yours.

The mere mention of sex makes its eyes shift nervously and a smirk freezes on its lips, framed by wisps of pubescent hairs and erupting skin-pores.

 

sexy, u just got me a boner

Yeah, the duck-billed platypus as someone else mentioned. It's like a category all unto its own, heh.

The Cassowary is a rather odd looking bird. It looks like something out of the Mezozoic(dinosaur) period. The female lays the eggs and wanders off leaving the male to hatch and raise the young by himself.

 

The strangest animal is the penguin because it thrives in an environment that almost nothing lives in.

 

I picked a bombadier beetle up on accident, once. It felt like I had picked up a hot coal. It was entirely unremarkable. Just a small, brown, hard shelled beetle. When I poked it again, this time with a stick, it blasted a little puff of steam at me. Or whatever they blast.

I'd say the coconut crab is pretty damn cool.

birds are prehistoric relics... but for my money egg laying mammals ( platypi and echidni) beat out...

no wait anerobic lifeforms outweigh us all and therefore pwn.

 

Only a small percentage of penguins live in the antartic regions. A majority of the species lives in warmer areas like Central/South American islands and South Africa.
