Weird Existing Animals

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.

Erni Bär (6)

A few weeks ago Erni Bär celebrated his 70th birthday.
So I made him some mail art.

And he replied by a nourishing envelope, which contained two 'o.k.' tins. Alas my scanner refuses to scan the tins, afraid as the scanner is for scratches and holes on the glass plate.
But the envelope indeed has been scanned:

And of course the whistling Kurt:

Thank you very much, Erni!

Behold the Llama!
Or is it an Alpaca?
Anyway, this animal traveled along with several Humans, and Kurt Schwitters, from Germany to the Netherlands in this great collage, created by Erni Bär.

Thinking of Erni's mail art, of course the Haptic Werewolf comes in mind, too, and fortunately the Werewolf also appeared on this collage.

Check Erni's websites: some of his own art, and received mail art.
Thank you very much, vielen Dank, Erni!
