I firmly believe that ugliness is the absence or subversion of expected intentional order, and that ugliness is absent from nature because we don't model nature as having aesthetic intentions.

Parts of nature may be *disgusting*, but never *ugly*. Animals with ugly faces just prove the rule because their ugliness stems from looking too much like a human in all the wrong ways; a subverted expectation of the order of a human face. Faceless animals are never ugly.
