I believe this 100%, as this sort of thing has even happened at my local zoo. The only walk-in enclosures there are birds. We still had monkeys and koalas stolen (always the animals on meds) and coincidentally "found" by young people.
Oh god, no!!!! Just!!!! NO!!!!!
Is it bad I hope one of those very powerful animals gets fed up one day and damages a car? ๐ฌ

On the handle of the mace, a red robin landed. The eyes of the goose are made of glass. The feet and the beak are painted in burnt yellow, as the breast of the red robin. The upper part of the robin is painted in brown/grey and its eyes and beak in black. Bottom right : Woodcarved humanoid crow wearing a hooded cloak, shoulder armor. It has its right hand on a sword.

Hello, I'm a woodcarver, and this what I do โ๏ธ
You can help me a lot by sharing my work, so people can buy or commission me sculptures.

For #FossilFriday, the Chicago #Archaeopteryx! This gorgeous animal includes not only nearly the entire skeleton, but also soft tissues! At #Paleofest, Jingmai O'Connor discussed soft tissues of the skull and the feeding habits of this animal, including a mobile tongue, basihyal, & oral papillae!

From the root of a fallen tree of long ago, new life. A new tree has grown in the most unique way. Rounded from the tree base and shooting horizontally through the forest. Tall trees and ferns surround this one of a kind beauty. There is no judgment, no ridicule, simply acceptance.
originality is irreplaceable

Alright, updated post after speaking w/ a neurosurgeon. Currently I mostly need help affording transportation to various appointments and saving up for multiple surgeries. I will link the post explaining the full situation of what's going on with the IIH in the reply. I apologize for asking again.
Heads up - I've rest0cked the sh0p with what I believe is the LAST of the Isopod Ita Bags! Unless I have a couple stragglers in a different inventory tote this is IT. Once they're gone, they're gone and I will more than likely be retiring this design finally so hopefully make way for new projects!
