Happy Earth Day Everyone!
This is the Hawksbill Sea Turtle. Thank you everyone who participated in my animal guessing game on Monday and Tuesday. Congratulations @k_jermyn for guessing Hawksbill Sea Turtle with its full name on Tuesday! Congratulations @dereksmith066 for agreeing with @k_jermyn on Tuesday and guessing Turtle on Monday. Congratulations @jaredkinz for guessing Sea Turtle on Monday! Please let me know if you had fun with this game and if you would like me to do another one in the future. Thank you everyone else who participated and chose different animals. It was nice to learn of a few different animals that I can think about for future projects. Let's not continue to be the cause of the problem for the Earth or our neighboring living creatures. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Renew! ![]() Happy Monday everyone! I'm going to do something a little bit different today so I can release my design on Earth Day (Wednesday 4/22). For now, I thought it would be fun to give you a few hints about the animal and we can see if anyone can guess what doodle I'm releasing this week. To guess, please check out my Instagram and Facebook with a link in the two pictures below. Anyone who answers correctly, I will congratulate on Wednesday in my doodle post and on my story on my Instagram and Facebook.
True wolves live in packs but the Maned Wolf is a lone wolf. Well, it’s not really a true wolf since it has its own genus, Chrysocyon. They do pair up in monogamous relationships during breeding season and while raising their young to protect their territory. They are omnivores: half of their diet includes fruits and veggies including bananas, apples, avocados, and lobeira fruit , aka fruit of the wolf, and the other half includes small rodents, insects, and birds. A Lobeira fruit grows on a tree and when immature looks a little like a green tomato with inner white flesh and brown/black seeds. If you watched or played Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal/HeartGold/SoulSilver, then they look like green apricorns from the Johto region used to make Friend Pokeballs. This unripened fruit is poisonous to humans so it’s not something you would give to your human friends. When ripe, it has a milky yellow inner flesh and is safe for human consumption. Locals make jams and preserves with them.

Maned Wolf
Lobeira Fruit
This week’s animal has the red fur and head first jump of a red fox, the long legs and gallop of a deer, and the name Maned Wolf!
I was introduced to the Maned Wolf by a Facebook post trying to figure out what this beautiful yet Frankensteined combination of creatures was. I'm here to tell you that the Maned Wolf’s closest living relative is the bush dog. A little dog with brown fur, a twinkie-shaped body, short legs, and a head that looks like an upset brown bear. With that mystery solved, I hope you enjoy the rest of your week! |

I'm just a doodling artist. My current style started in a lecture class at MCLA where I began doodling in my notebooks. Now I've started a new series focusing on animals. Archives
