“We are sort of hardwired to respond to these sorts of features,” Daniel Blumstein, a professor at UCLA’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, said.

“’Oh, isn’t that cute,’ we say when we see a Baby Yoda, or when we see a puppy, or when we see a baby of any other species, where we might not have that same feeling when we see an adult of another species,” he added.
