Fuckin humans. Little alien potatoe mutant lookin infants geoss me the fuck out.
Platipus - they start as boring eggs
Pretty much all birds.
Baby birds all cuter after they like 2 weeks old. A ton of newborn things look pretty ugly.

Except chicken
Coots are really cute as babies and kind of bleh as adults.
The aye-aye is weird-looking enough as an adult, but it looks like a Jim Henson creation as a baby.
I read all the comments to see if the aye-aye was mentioned.
I mean, there are a bunch of cute Henson creatures, but I neither disagree with you nor think this thing is in any way cute as a baby
Definitely humans. I mean, look at newborn babies. They are little wrinkly screaming poopgoblins.
You could describe the elderly in the same way.
We end the way we began.
Touché. I guess you’re right.
But right in the middle, some of us are… well not terrible. Not necessarily great, but not terrible.
At that point it’s more about our actions.

Yeah. Came here to say most rodents would fit this bill though even the adults aren’t for all tastes. Mice, etc. are much cuter when they have fur.
Newborn cats aren’t all that great looking.
also rabbits and squirrels, but it seems that capybaras and beavers are born with fur
Ladybug. The baby is a demon spawn made to eliminate aphid. It’s good but not cute, it’s metal.
Similarly, antlions. The adult just looks like a weird dragonfly while the larva is an alien-looking burrowing ambush predator with spikes and giant mandibles.
yikes!
Butterflies
beat me to it.
Pretty much every bird
Pretty much every bird looks cuter than adults after a couple weeks old.
Except the birds with precocious chicks. They’re pretty much all cute. For example, the baby killdeer is adorable. baby chicks and baby ducks are pretty cute too.
Damn, good point. Ducklings are adorable. And look at this little guy!
Birds and humans.
Also a lot of rodents, like mice, rats, etc.
Stellars Jays spring to mind. One of the most beautifully punk-rock looking birds and worryingly intellegent, but my god their young look like nothing more than cancerous scrotums.
Barn Owls all day long
Most birds, really.
they look like baby skeksis

Pandas and kangaroos come to mind immediately. Probably every marsupial would make the cut here too.
