"The Most Extreme" is a long-running documentary TV series on the American cable television network, Animal Planet. It first aired on July 1, 2002. Each episode focuses on a specific animal feat, such as strength, speed, flirtation, appendages, diet, etc., and examines and ranks 10 animals which portray extreme or unusual examples of that quality. The rankings are not arrived at by a scientifically rigorous process; they serve only to give a broad depiction.
| 1. | Anglerfish) The male anglerfish lives on the female anglerfish, sometimes his entire life. |
| 2. | Platypus) They have the bill of a duck, the flippers of an otter and the tail of a beaver. |
| 3. | Aye-Aye They look like a collection of leftover body parts. |
| 4. | Hairy Frog) The only amphibian that grows hair. |
| 5. | Horseshoe Crab) Has a strange shell. |
| 6. | Cassowary) The cassowary does a bizarre dance. |
| 7. | Flying Fish) When frightened, it glides out of the water to get out of danger. |
| 8. | Sloth) Lives completely upside down and moves really slow. |
| 9. | Stalk-eyed fly) The male has strange eyes that stick out like sore thumbs. |
| 10. | Proboscis Monkey) The male has a weird, long nose. |
