Friday animals

[Arch]

Following on from the enquiry about Chuffy's sloth, I think we should have an animal picture thread. Preferably animals just a little out of the ordinary, or lesser known.

I'll kick off with the Numbat:

Very cute, I think. But with a rather surprising tongue!

Come on, post a pic of your favourite slightly under-appreciated animal...

 

[Chuffy]

The slow loris.

A ZONKEY !

Hurrah ! I managed to put a picture in, thanks for the info HairyJock

Stop it Keith and Chuffy!!!!!!!

Chuffy, every time I look at your loris, it makes me want to cry!

How about a baby saiga?

 

[Chuffy]

Real animals only please Elmer...

Ladles and gentlemice, I give you...the pangolin.*

* - Probably not Captain Corelli's.

Baby sloth!

Well, as I can't beat Aperitif's nose and tongue , I'll go the other way with a Namid Desert Golden Mole.

No eyes!

Yes, OK it has eyes, but they are under the skin, and it's blind.

Chuffy, It's actually smiling so must know we're talking about him/her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
