Hello! I'm So Proud To Finally Present You The Artwork With All The Perissodactyla Order Including Its

Blue Whale

"We must feel lucky to be sharing the world with the biggest animal that ever existed."

Not even the biggest dinosaur is a match for the size of the Blue Whale, the largest animal that ever existed on earth. The largest-ever registered was 33 meters. It is the biggest size the animal can reach in order to function correctly. A fifth subspecies could be a population that inhabits the coasts of Chile. A group with unique vocalization and notable genetic differences.

I must say that whales are fascinating. I still find it hard to wrap the size of this animal. I hope one day I could see one of them. Today is protected because it was heavily hunted almost to its extinction. In 1966, its hunt was banned by the International Whaling Commission. ___________________________

I think we take giraffes for granted. Studying its evolution must be really fascinating. How an animal evolved its neck in such a long size in order to reach food that no other could? And, Why is not strange to us an animal with such particular features? Still is great that an animal had developed weird characteristics to survive but I see some holes in its path of evolution. That will be when they have to go to the ground. I don't think there is any other animal in nature that have to put itself in such a very uncomfortable position in order to do something that is so vital and "simple" as drinking water. I would love to live millions of years more to see where the evolution of the giraffe will go. I would love even more that the giraffes last enough to keep evolving. Thornicroft's Giraffe It is also called the Rhodesian Giraffe. It is commonly seen as a subspecies of the Masai Giraffe but some scientists believe is a single species. This subspecies has a particularly long neck and is among the largest of all subspecies of Giraffes. It has been seen that the coat of giraffes darkens when they grow up which could be a way to know the age of an animal. However, further studies need to be conducted.

Is a giraffe exclusive to Zambia and its numbers are no longer than 550 individuals. No populations are kept in captivity and tourism has been a way to protect them since they are a very popular sight in Africa. 20% off in my store starting tomorrow and running the whole next week.

Love this one! More from the Felidae family. The turn now is for the biggest in America. Jaguar At first glance, Jaguars and Leopards are not so easy to differentiate. They are like two brothers. One's appearance, the leopard, looks more graceful and stylized. While the Jaguar has a more bulky body and its legs are shorter. One is agile while the other one is made to wrestle. However, the biggest difference is that the leopard lives in Africa, Asia, and Oceania, while the Jaguar is found in America. So if you are in Kenya, be 100% sure you are seeing a leopard. _________________________________________ Photo Reference Credits: Gary Morris __________________________________________ Thank you guys for your support. Love in the way of likes reblogs and follows is very much appreciated. If is more than love, you can tip me too :). One animal or more every week. Would love to do more than one but the illustrating part takes a lot of time X(.

Javan Warty Pig

These pigs are also killed by farmers because they eat their crops at night. It is also seen as a trophy by hunters due to its large size. Curiously, another threat to this animal comes from natural causes. It’s closest relative the Banded Pig (Sus scrofa vittatus) shares similar habitat ranges as the Javan Pig, competing for resources and also cross-mating creating hybrids of the both.

Indian boar, Andamanese pig or Moupin pig These are animals mainly nocturnal. Females and  young males move in small groups of about ten individuals, while the old boars are solitary for most of the year.

North African boar, Barbary Wild Boar This wild boar have been documented swimming offshore islands up to 7km apart. Ten different vocalizations have been distinguish. It is also remarkable that each mother can recognize her own offspring voice.

Central Asian boar Can be found in southeastern Iran, Pakistan and Northwest India.

Middle Asian boar, Black-footed Boar This boar can be seen in Middle Asia, Kazakhstan, the eastern Tien Shan, western Mongolia, Kashgar and possibly Afghanistan and southern Iran.

The last species of the Equidae family, The zebras! Zebras have three distinctive species and 10 subspecies. It is probably the most beloved of the equines, (apart from the horses of course) and it is indeed a very particular animal. 

On the other hand, to solve the mystery of the color of the zebras once and for all (if they are white with black stripes, or black with withe stripes), I can assure that these ones are black with white stripes.

Grevy’s Zebra or Imperial Zebra: The largest and the most threatened. Its population has declined from 15000 to 3000 since the 70′s. Although since 2008 it’s population has been stable. It differs in behavior from the other species because it doesn’t form big harems. It has narrower stripes and bigger size. Its main problem was hunting since its skin was highly appreciated in the market. Today the Grevy’s Zebra is protected in Ethiopia and Kenya making a decline in the hunting. However, habitat loss and competing for natural resources with livestock became its main issue. Posters in my store: Here

Drawing giraffes is fun and somehow easier than others animals. Because they are so long, the amount of details somehow reduces considerably, and still, the animal will look great. Differentiating this one is probably the hardest so far. I felt that the spots and color of the giraffe aren’t so characteristic as other ones like the Niger or Reticulated Giraffe. On the other hand, the close relationship that has with the Rothschild’s Giraffe (you will see in the next giraffe post) make things a little harder.  Nubian Giraffe  According to what I read, this is the nominate subspecies which in other words means that was the first subspecies to be described. Therefore, its Latin name is repeated twice (Giraffa camelopardalis camelopardalis). This giraffe is Critically Endangered. It is believed that there are less than 2150 in the wild. However, about 1500 are from Rothschild’s Giraffe, leaving the Nubian Giraffe with less than 650 individuals. It is extinct in the wild in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt, and Eritrea. In captivity, is bred at Gia Zoo in Egypt and the Al Ain Zoo in the United Arab Emirates. ___________________________________ Credits: Nubian Giraffe Nubian Giraffe ___________________________________

Southern White Rhinoceros

The name of the White Rhinoceros is attributed to a translation error. In Dutch, "white" is pronounced as "widj," which actually means "wide," referring to the rhino's mouth width. A more precise, albeit unused, name for this species is the square-lipped rhinoceros. The White Rhinoceros is a genus comprising two subspecies. This is one of them. Wallpaper is available here.

This is the last of the Lowland Tapir subspecies. It was a real joy to draw this animal, and I love the result. I actually animate this animal. If you want to see it moving, check out my Instagram by clicking here

Tapirus terrestris terrestris

Tapirs are like living fossils. They haven't changed much in years because they are well-adapted to this world. That was until we came into the picture. We, humans, move in this world at a pace that is hard to follow for many animals, and Tapirs are one of them. Their habits are just the opposite. Its reproduction is slow, making it very hard for them to recover once is decimated in some areas. They wander vast distances which means they need space and we are not providing that to them. Kill roads, fragmentation of the environment, crops in jungles, etc.

I think we need to understand that we are at the top of this world. Whatever we do is going to have repercussions on everything that surrounds us. We decide where the world is going and how it does it. That means also, that we are responsible for all living beings. Now is not like before, when animals extinguish because they couldn't adapt to the environment. Now they extinguish basically because they couldn't adapt to us. We will be gone at some point, so What are we going to leave? _______________________________________ Credits: Handbook of the Mammals of the World. Book 2. Lynx Editions.

And check out my store, new items with a very different style of illustration.

Working on this one took me forever. I’m very happy with the result though because I wanted a pose that portrays the animal with majesty and power.

Bengal Tiger

If you ever saw a tiger, 90% of the chances are that you saw a Bengal Tiger. It is the most famous and probably the one that has inspired us the most. The versatility that the tiger has to propel the imagination of humans is unmeasurable. From a cruel villain to a magnificent god, its charisma and beauty have made us dream for centuries, and are now just part of the whole human culture, regardless of nationality.

It is also the popular white tiger which is nothing but a lack of melanin, the pigment in charge of giving us color. Less popular but equally magnificent and extremely rare is the golden tiger which can be seen just in captivity. A problem! if you ask me because this means that has been humanly altered genetically to get the color. There is also the black tiger, which is not completely black. Its black stripes are thicker making the orange color less visible. However, there are some reports stating that completely black tigers have been spotted in the wild. No photographs have been taken though. 

India primordially is its homeland but now it can also be seen more often than in the wild in the backyards of United States homes. __________________________________________________ Credits: Felids and Hyenas of the World: Wildcats, Panthers, Lynx, Pumas, Ocelots, Caracals, and Relatives.  Dr. José R.
