Made-up Animals

[DuskTheKitty]

(If this is in the wrong forum please forgive me, it was the best one I could decide on)

So, I know I do all the time, but I'd like to know: are there any other Zoochatters who like to make up animals in their minds? Or is it just a product of my young age?

I'd really like to know

Do a google search for author Dougal Dixon and be inspired.

Or for Rhinogrades.

I remember doing sketches of various non-existent cetaceans a few years ago but I've no idea where they went. I'm sure I could recreate them.

I create ecosystems like this all the time. Did anyone see the Boulay book in French?

Or for Rhinogrades.

Rhinograda though charming was whimsical. Dixon was scientifically minded just, like most of us, not a biologist and the sci he did rely on was out of date. Demains is very hard sci, it raises the bar for spec bio, but suffers taxonomic roulette.

All the time! I like to create fantasy worlds so I need animals to populate them, ha ha.

I found another project today:
