Wildlife Map Drawing Project

[Wildlife Watcher]

Here's a project that started in 2023 which I've been continuously adding to to this day. It involves drawing stylized "icons" for various specific species, and every time I finish a new one, I'd add it to the map, in accordance with the animals natural geographic range.
At first, I initially planned to draw just sixty animals in late 2023, but as the months passed, I gradually added more animals to the map. It was then I decided to make this a project with no end, that I could continuously add to in-between other projects. As far as future additions go, I'm open to suggestions if there's any animal you'd like to see added to the map!

In August 2023, the first eleven animals were added to the map:

• Coquerel's Sifaka
• Asian Elephant
• Cheetah
• Snowy Owl
• Ring-Tailed Lemur
• Common Blue Morpho
• Western Honeybee
• Seven-Spotted Ladybug
• European Mantis
• Toco Toucan
• Blue-and-Gold Macaw
