The Leafy Seadragon (pastel on paper)
If you ever wondered what the best living vertebrate is, itโs the alligator gar in my totally not biased 100% scientifically backed opinion. They are just a flawless creature. Nothing wrong with them. Good tooth to snoot ratio, they have a winning smile.
They and other monster fish absolutely should NOT be in the hands of most private keepers at all and I do NOT support morph breeding of them because of that, but pretty fishy cute :c
[ you meet god and she is mostly dead fish. ]
a comic based on this post:
Camouflage crew!

when was the last time you saw a weevil this big
The largest weevil in North America, the palmetto weevil (Rhyncophorus cruentatus) lays eggs in the crowns of palms, where the grubs feed and often kill their host in the process.
In Florida itโs considered a major pest due to its habit of destroying ornamental palm trees, but native palmettos and sabal palms (the weevilsโ natural hosts) are rarely harmed unless theyโre already stressed or damaged. Itโs mostly date palms and other exotic species planted along city streets that canโt take the heat and need to be drenched with insecticide to ensure survival.
