Top 10 Amazing Animal Shaped Rock Formations
Chiseled and eroded by mother nature some of these ten animal sculptures often require a little imagination to see them clearly, but some of them are such a perfect shape they require no imagination at all! It’s taken centuries for made them into these shapes, but it will only take a moment to see them…
Top 10 Amazing Animal Shaped Rock Formations
..
Eagle Rock Formation
10 – Grand Canyon, Arizona
Some of these animals in rocks are not easy to find, so I thought it was best to put an image of the animal in the ones that are a little tricky (like this one!)
Dog Rock Formation
9 – Albany, Australia
I still think it looks more like a seal’s head every time I look at it! But it’s called dog rock and it will just have to be called a dog shaped rock!
Frog Rock Formation
8 – Bragg’s Island, Newfoundland
My idea of a nightmare, but there is definitely something very frog-like about these rocks.
Seal Rock Formation
7 – Yehliu, Taiwan
With some of these “animals” it is often a case of point of view (POV) rather than the actual formation of the rocks.
Lion Rock Formation
6 – Arches National Park, Utah
It does definitely look like a lion, but it would have been amazing without its animals shape!
Hedgehog Rock Formation
5 – Tassili N’Ajjer, Algeria
There are loads of weird and unusual rock formations in Tassili n´ Ajjer National Park, its no wonder its a Unesco World Heritage Site!
Camel Rock Formation
4 – Tassili N’Ajjer, Algeria
It might be a bit of an odd shape, but there is definitely something camel shaped about it. It’s a strange rock formation anyway, eaten by the sand constantly.
Horse Rock Formation
3 – Cornwall, UK
Located here in the UK it is more of an optical illusion than a rock formation shaped like an animal, but it’s still pretty effective!
Elephant Rock Formation
2 – Heimaey, Iceland
Looking like a rather sad Elephant who is trying to have a drink in peace is this rather odd rock formation that even seems to have the texture of an Elephant!
Polar Bear Rock Formation
1 – Sardinia, Italy
Italy is not this first place you might goto to see a Polar Bear, but if you don’t mind them being made from rock it’s perfect!
