Looks like I've been fascinated by #frogs and #bats since day 1! 2008 - 2019/2020, my passion for #illustration and #wildlifeart clearly hasn't changed!

#Mermay Day 8: Zebra Shark (Endangered)
They're nocturnal foragers and rest during the day. As they age, they lose their stripes and gain spots. Threats include being captured and overfished by inshore fisheries. #EndangeredMermay #EndangeredSpeciesDay and #colour_collective
A white-clawed crayfish
We are lucky enough to have in good numbers in our becks, but they are struggling in many places.
To give it a good chance we are looking to have many of our becks fenced off from livestock soon.
He’s a funky dude & needs helping.

This #EndangeredSpeciesDay take second to think about the outstanding diversity of nature, not just the bold and the beautiful species but the interesting but ugly ones too.

Their main threat are gillnets, which are used to capture totoaba. Even though fishing for totoaba is illegal.
