Do they know. Do they know that they’re predators. Do they even know.

the most helpful Cambrian creature...an Anomalocaris pencil holder! :D I absolutely love how these turned out, she just hangs out on my desk all day until I need my pen again- what a sweetie!

Anomalocaris pencil holders are available in my store now, as well as STL files if you'd like to 3D print your own at home! :D

a fun (?) tidbit about rats:

rat groups also have social hierarchy & lower-ranked individuals may act as "(poison) tasters", trying out food before their higher ranking fellows take a bite!

(source: one of our study materials said so)

I think it's sad that most people always think of bottlenoses as the "classic dolphin" since its the one that's always used for shows, and always think of dolphins as just straight grey when in reality there's so many varieties with so many different amazing patterns

Look at the common dolphin! They have a gorgeous X pattern and even some dull yellow/gold!!

Hourglass dolphins have gorgeous white streaks

Spinner dolphins have really pretty banding as well, AND they have a really sleek cute silhouette!

The atlantic spotted dolphin!!! Theyre spotted!!!!!!

and the pantropical spotted too!!

Dusky dolphins have a gorgeous airbrush look going on like straight out of a 2000s fantasy illustration

Striped dolphins sure have stripes!! How cool!!

And these I've shown you aren't even all of them at all, there are so many of them:

There's so so so many different types of dolphins people dont know about this isnt even all of them and some are SO gorgeous and underrated because people just dont know they exist so I'm here to fix that
