August 5, 2021 at 2:18 pm
List in any order your favorite species of life.
1. Penguin, because they are so damned cute.
2. Water Bear, because it is bad ass and has survived all 5 mass extinction events in earth's history.
3. Platypus, love the bill.
4. Ocelot, for the pattern.
5. Meercats, for the way they stand up and look around like sentries.
What species of animal do you like?

Mythological, like God, and Allah and Vishnu and Yoda.
*shrug* You pick your favourites and I’ll pick mine.

During my caterpillar farming days I would rear 100-150 of these beauties annually. My best specimens had wingspans of 6½" or better.

1. People. Sure, some of them suck. Really bad. But there's a lot of really good ones too!
2. Red Pandas. Cutest animal known.
3. Arctic fox. Level of adorable is too strong.
4. Dolphins. If you hate Dolphins, you're probably a robot.
