Call for Mail Art: Weird (existing) Animals! Platypus, Tapir, Okapi, Echidna, Mole, Axolotl are some of my favourite animals. They have in common that they exist irl and that they are uncommon. Which animal do you think odd? Send your image of an unusual (existing, no fantasy) animal. All media are welcomed, preferable postcard size (10x15 cms), maximum A4 (20x30 cms). No jury, no fee, no return. All weird existing animals will be published in this ongoing virtual exhibition.

An other couple of real weird animals, collage created and sent by Nicole Eippers.
I was wondering how these two are named - apart from the well-known Pig silhouet and Butterfly stamp. Fortunately Nicole added some information: the one on the left is a Douroucouli, or Night Monkey, the only monkey who has a totally active night life.
And the - here big, but in real smaller than 1.5 mm - fellow on the right is a Tardigrade (literally 'Slow Walker'), also known as Waterbear, both names have been chosen for the way they walk.
Visual food for thought! Thank you very much, merci beaucoup, Nicole!
