I will never forget my beloved brother, who never found this site but nonetheless became acquainted with the friends I have made here. Rest well, Spaceman, I will carry you in my heart always.
Most info below, save for that evergreen list of good animals, is outdated, but will be left in its state as a time capsule of the person I once was.

Really cool animals that more people should know about:
(Also under construction)
- The aforementioned capybara
, the largest living rodent. Similar to a semi-aquatic guinea pig.
- The chevrotain
, the world's smallest ungulate species.
- The degu
, a caviomorph rodent that makes an affectionate pet and shows signs of having ape-like/corvid-like intelligence.
- The dik-dik
, cute lil' antelopes with a name that makes grade-schoolers chuckle.
- The pangolin
, an anteater-lookin' thing with a thick armor of plate-like scales made of keratin.
- Members of the family tenrecidae
, a diverse family whose members come in many interesting shapes, sizes and colors and tend to look and behave like critters that they're not related to.
- The star-nosed mole
, which looks like it has a face-full of tentacles.
- The marsupial mole
, which looks like a Tribble with a big, pink nose.
- The numbat
, an adorable little thing which sports a long, anteater-like tongue thanks to the wonders of convergent evolution.
- The quokka
, once called the happiest animal in the world. It has no fear of humans and is cute as a button.
- The tree-kangaroo
, like normal kangaroos, but with trees! They also have really pretty patterns on their fur.
- The Bulldog Rat
, a dopey dodo of a mammal that lived on Christmas Island and was inadvertently killed off by human sailors who brought foreign diseases with them.
- The Caspian tiger
, an extinct tiger with a Badass Beard.
- The glyptodon
, an extinct armadillo relative the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. It might have looked like a cross between a turtle and a squirrel with a short trunk like that of a tapir.
- Megatherium
, the giant ground sloth. Was most likely an herbivore, but could possibly have been a predator or scavenger of the aforementioned glyptodonts.
- Paraceratherium
, which looked like giraffe-shaped hornless rhinos.
- The thylacine,
better known as the Tasmanian Tiger. God rest their stripy souls.
- The Mexican mole lizard (or ajolote)
. It's tiny, it's shaped like a worm, it's bright pink, it's only got two legs and it has beady little black eyes. What's not to love?
- Uromastyx
, a genus of lizards more famously known as spiny tailed lizards. They live in the deserts of North Africa and use their spiked tails to fend off predators.
- Lepidobatrachus
, or Budgett's frogs, a genus native to South America and famous for screaming when threatened
.
- The cassowary
, a shy flightless bird with a beautiful crest and a kick that can kill an adult human.
- The Northern White-faced owl
, an African owl that is also known as the Transformer owl due to a popular viral video
of its unique bluffing strategy.
- The potoo
, a near-passerine bird native to Middle and South America, renowned for its excellent camouflage abilities as well as herping its derp.
- The Zebra Finch
, an important model organism, a very good pet, and has recently been found to be possibly capable of parthenogenesis (or virgin birth)
, though the offspring have not been observed to make it that far.
- Amblypygids
, relatives of spiders and scorpions who look hells menacing but are only capable of giving a painful pinch when threatened.
- Camel-spiders
, which aren't actually spiders and don't actually kill camels but are still pretty freaky.
- Members of the order Isopoda
, which includes your common cute little garden pillbugs as well as these oversized ocean floor creepy-crawlies
.
- Mantis shrimp
, who have some of the best eyesight in the animal kingdom and are able to snap their claws shut with such quickness and force that they make incredibly powerful mini-explosions, used to kill or stun their prey.
- Tardigrades (or water bears)
, which look like cute, silly little microscopic caterpillars but are actually nigh-indestructible badasses.
- Velvet worms
, who despite their moniker are not related to annelids and are notable for their oddly-mammalian social structure and their ability to catch prey Spider-Man style.
