Sky Fox (2020)The Fox as a symbol for harnessing creativity. Creativity itself being represented by fire and the Sun. -
Sloth Saint (2020)The Sloth, the animal that takes the "chill" mentality to new heights. Saintly god-tier heights. Watching a sloth's slow deliberate moves is calming to me. I wonder if they know something about the universe that us humans don't. -
Hyena Misunderstood (2020)Hyenas are one of the most misunderstood animals on the planet. But they're just different. They're not our definition of majestic and strong. And since hyenas don't stack up to our definitions of beauty and behavior, they actually thrive. Unlike a lot of African animals they are NOT on the endangered species list. -
Grizzly Keystone (2020)The great Grizzly bear of the northwest is truly PART OF the northwest. They are a keystone species to the land. The fish carcasses they leave behind nourish the soil and support the forest overall.
