I really love isopods, they're just the cutest thing ever.
My favorite type of cat is the Manul. <3
Tapirs are also cool, I like their noses.
Wolf Eel, Gulper Eel, Humboldt Squid, Hyenas, Jersey Devils, and Chupacabra <3

When I saw this picture, I squeed aloud. It's just too cute for words.

I just love the weird facial expressions Pallas cats make, like grumpy little old men.
Tapirs are adorable. When I saw them at the zoo for the first time, I fell in love with them. They were all sleeping in their enclosures, looking so cute and fat and happy, and I wanted to use their big bellies as pillows and lay on them. :3
I know you said no wolves because their quite popular but they are indeed misunderstood by many and at least need a tiny mention. 730 wolves were killed in combined hunts and are slowly moving closer to being endangered so..ya. I agree with you on coyotes as well but they don't normally wander in groups for many to be killed at once, which 'kind of' (maybe) explains how they were able to almost outsurvive the wolves.
(Just to put up a disclaimer, this isn't supposed to start a discussion so hold your flamethrowers)
Red wolves and Ethiopian wolves are endangered, though. :3
But lobsters are pretty amazing too! if it weren't for predators, parasites, and diseases, lobsters could live forever! think of that! FOREVER! Science proves it!

Despite their rep, they are surprisingly clean animals.
The word "plankton" refers to the floating marine organisms that live on the surface of oceans. These organisms can be plants or animals. The plant forms are microscopic algae whose photosynthesis reactions provide the Earth's atmosphere with the majority of its oxygen. The other type of plankton, composed of tiny animals, is called zooplankton.Source: http://www.encyclopedia.com/topic/Zooplankton.aspx (http://www.encyclopedia.com/topic/Zooplankton.aspx)

I think that there should be caution among people who find dangerous animals cute and likeable. They may seem like they are 'misunderstood' but in the end we have to remember that they are wild animals and can very easily hurt us if we aren't careful. This goes particularly for people who keep exotic wild animals (like tigers, lions and big cats, along with big snakes and other large 'wild' animals) as pets in their backyard. Not only is it unethical, but it's dangerous as well. Sorry if I went a bit off topic ;u; I thought it might be interesting to bring up popular animals that are misunderstood as well. On FH, for example, I'm guessing a lot of people adore wolves and lions, but we should never forget that if met with these animals in the wild, they probably wouldn't hesitate to attack, and I think that's important to remember.

Thank you for mentioning that. I think that's the first time anyone's ever mentioned an animal being 'misunderstood' in that particular way. And you weren't going off-topic at all!
Usually when people mention an animal as being 'misunderstood', they often mean that the animal is made out to be worse/more dangerous than it really is. But being 'misunderstood' can also mean that the animal is made out to be less dangerous than it really is. Like how when people own pet chimpanzees or pet wolves. Chimps may look like cute hairy little people, and wolves may look like cute 'n' cuddly doggies, but they are wild animals, and unlike domesticated animals like dogs or sheep, they do not depend on humans to survive, and they are not keen on taking orders from creatures that are not only physically weaker than them, but also edible.
