“人脸狗”引热议
A 1-year-old puppy is making a lot of people feel afraid on the Internet because of his unusual human face.
Yogi is a Shih-poo―a cross(杂交) between a Shih Tzu and a poodle―whose eyes and jaw(下巴) make him appear very human-like, despite being very dog-like in every other way.
“He is the most playful puppy,” owner Chantal Desjardins told Inside Edition. “He always wants to play balls or get his belly rubbed.” Yogi has become an Internet sensation(引起轰动的人) in the last week after a friend posted his photos on Reddit.
Many people have suggested that Yogi’s photos were produced with a face swap( 替 换 ) program, but Desjardins swears that’s all him. She said she didn’t even realize how human her dog’s face appeared until others pointed it out on Twitter.
Research suggests that human beings are born to think of certain types of animal faces as “cute” or “human-like.” The phenomenon(现象), called “baby schema”, means humans tend to associate things like big eyes and round cheeks with baby humans.
