The friendliest wild animals in nature are usually those that don’t move to attack humans on sight. Even the nicest animals can get aggressive, but there are plenty of critters out there who will approach or even befriend a person if they play nice.

Ball Python
A lot of people would beg to differ when hearing that snakes are friendly. But with the ball python, which is non-venomous, it’s easy to think that they’re not too bad unless they’re hungry or scared. Then all bets are off.

Bearded Dragon
This little guy doesn’t look like one of the friendliest wild animals, especially when he’s angry. But the truth is that bearded dragons are very easy to get along with. In the wild or as pets, they’ll approach humans if they’re given a good reason.

Blue Whale
Whales aren’t generally aggressive unless there’s a reason, such as a threat or an annoyance they don’t want to deal with. But despite being huge and kind of menacing thanks to their girth, blue whales are gentle, friendly creatures that don’t cause trouble without a good reason.

Camel
Some people prefer camels to horses for a few different reasons. Not only that, but these creatures, whether they’re wild or domesticated, are quite friendly and will bond with the person or people who treat them right.

Cows
It’s understood that cows aren’t really considered wild animals by some people since they’re farm animals, but they still live in the wild for the most part. With that in mind, cows are temperamental sometimes, but they’re also big lovers if their caregivers are kind and take care of them.

Cuttlefish
It’s tough to think of a fish as affectionate or friendly, but cuttlefish do swim around divers now and then in a very curious manner. They’re not aggressive, but they are skittish, so when they hang around it’s easy to assume that there’s a little more to their curiosity.

Dolphin
Swimming with dolphins is a prized activity that a lot of people pay good money for. But encountering them in the wild, especially if they don’t act aggressively, can provide an experience that will last a lifetime since they are social creatures, much like humans.

Duck
Ducks are very friendly, especially when they’re fed. They are skittish creatures quite often, but if they figure that they’re going to get fed, it’s fair to say that they’re more than a little sociable.

Giant Panda
Anytime one thinks about playing with a bear it automatically sounds like a bad idea. Sure, pandas can get a little too aggressive, but the great thing is that they’re not like grizzlies or even black bears. Being friendly with these big, lovable creatures is far less risky.

Goats
Goats get a bad reputation, plain and simple. There are plenty of goats that have a negative disposition for one reason or another. But a lot of times goats are fun to have around and are amusing if nothing else.

Squirrels
They don’t always approach humans unless there’s food offered, but squirrels are still a lot of fun if you can gain their trust. Some people would claim that they carry too many diseases, but all the same, they’re cute little critters that offer a lot of entertainment.

Koalas
Sure, they get a little aggressive when they get nervous, but so do humans. Koalas are big, friendly balls of fur that when treated with respect tend to act reserved and even chummy at times. It’s not bound to happen all the time, but if you’re willing to show some patience they might warm up to you.

Rabbits
Some rabbits are seriously aggressive, but fluffy bunnies that dart away at the approaching footsteps of people are usually harmless. If you have food, they could even approach for a snack.

Horses
Horses are still wild today, no matter how domesticated they are. They’re also great therapy animals since they pick up on emotions very easily and can often intuit what a person is feeling.

Chimpanzees
Like any other wild animal, a chimpanzee will react in one way or another depending on how they’re treated. If they’re given respect and are cared for, then they will undoubtedly show their friendly side without fail. They’re one of the friendliest wild animals on this list.
