(the lion finds the carnotaurus lying awake at night & decides to talk to him. "hey!", the lion calls out, frightening the carnotaurus who lets out an involuntary shriek in response. the carnotaurus, still on edge, stands up, saying "what?". the lion asks him, "you don't have a pride do you?" which confuses the carnotaurus as he does not know what a pride is. after a pause, the carnotaurus says "pardon?")

lions & carnotaurus probably didn't coexist in reality. carnotaurus lived in south america, while lions live in africa & asia. this comic is set in the future, after carnotaurus was de-extincted & introduced to an island on which there are also lions.

Asked my friends what to draw and one of them suggested that I drew a seal getting toast thrown at it. I was meaning to just do a sketch but I impulsively decided to colour and render it lmao. Also I have not drawn a seal since 2022 lmao.

Jungle Cat (Felis chaus)

Family: Cat Family (Felidae)

IUCN Conservation Status: Least Concern

Despite what its name suggests the Jungle Cat is not typically found in jungles, instead being a resident of densely vegetated swampy areas of northeastern Africa and western, southern and southeastern Asia. Like most wild cats members of this species are solitary, territorial (marking the outer limits of their territories with strong-smelling urine and saliva) and primarily active at night but not strictly nocturnal, waking up sporadically throughout the day to search for food (feeding primarily on small vertebrates such as rodents, lizards, fishes and frogs, though on occasion they may also consume fruit or target prey as large as Wild Boars and young Chitals (a medium-sized species of deer.)) Jungle Cats come together only to breed (producing high-pitch calls and sniffing the scent markings of other members of their species when receptive to mating,) and while females provide for their litters of 3-6 kittens largely on their own, males have been reported to remain nearby to defend their young for a short period after birth. Newborn Jungle Cats are larger and more developed at birth than many other cat species, being capable of hunting for themselves at around 6 months old and being fully independent by the time they are 9 months old.
