So, I had to make up his name. I don’t know what his real name is, I just like that he has this long tuft on top of his head and I think it would be good to put a bit of dipadeedoo in his hair to give him a fauxhawk.
I realize this is my third monkey in this series, but when you start researching strange animals, you start to realize a lot of them are monkeys, go figure.
I fell in love with this animal after I saw this film, which made me cry, I have to admit. Not like, cry cry, just a little choked up.
They are native to New Zealand, and don’t look like they have wings, but the probably do under there somewhere.

I am embarrassed to admit it, but I didn’t know this animal existed until I saw the movie Elf, and asked someone later, “What was up with the whale with a unicorn horn?” and they told me it was a real animal. I looked it up later, and sure enough, it is.
They have a pretty good defense, and are very cool, so for some reason I portrayed him in this holy way. Don’t ask why.
One word. Seacow.
‘Nuff said.
The Blob fish is my new favorite animal, well, until I find another one anyway. The reason is, because as some know, I love a good underdog. There is no animal more sad than a blob fish. The blob fish sits at the bottom of the ocean and just eats whatever is down there. He doesn’t have any real predators because it is so low pressure-wise. I think that must be why he is a blob.
I will go on record as saying that the blob fish may be the most pathetically lovable creature ever.
So I just completed a mad rush to finish 6 more animals for the Beehive Baazar. They are all part of my It Is What It Is series. If you have been following this blog, you may remember that the idea of this series is to spotlight the unfortunate animals that are poked fun at, disregarded as strange, or are just plain unique.
This one is called the Proboscis Monkey. He is known of course, for his honker, but don’t laugh at him, he doesn’t like that.
