The 'Take A Closer Look At That Snout' meme originates from a 1992 television commercial for the board game Croc Attack, where a child excitedly utters the phrase while inspecting the plastic crocodile's face. While the original clip lay dormant for decades, it resurfaced as a perfect reaction for zoomed-in footage of animals, particularly dogs with elongated features like Borzois and Bull Terriers. It is frequently paired with distorted audio or 'long-dog' aesthetic trends, serving as a humorous way to highlight the peculiar or adorable anatomy of various creatures. Whether used for a literal snout or a metaphorical 'nosey' situation, the meme remains a staple of animal-centric internet humor across TikTok and Instagram.
