Our favorite photo from when I was trying to get a Christmas-card worthy photo.
the food pyramid is actually just the tip of a massive underground food obelisk
Ugh… headache. Head splitting migraine, even.
I need everyone to see this picture of a porcupine looking at stingrays in an aquarium
Cutie… patootie... agouti? You might know the capybara, but what about its distant cousin the red-rumped agouti (Dasyprocta leporina)? This wide-ranging mammal can be found in forests throughout northern South America including Colombia, Brazil, and Venezuela. Though smaller than its more famous relative, this hefty rodent can weigh up to 13 lbs (5.9 kg). It dines on a diet of fruit, nuts, and seeds. Like a squirrel, the agouti will bury surplus food to save for a later date. But sometimes this critter forgets to come back for its stash, spreading seeds throughout its habitat as a result.

Adorable vlei rat.
i goofed around in ableton and blender and now there's a thing!! ✨️
rodentia vol. 1 is a small selection of tracks i've accumulated while worldbuilding for a larger narrative project about rodents. it is cozy and wistful and the beginning of more to come. enjoy if you like rats and all of their important cousins.

I kinda lived half of 2023 (maybe more) like a drowning rat in a bucket but this year I'll live like a normal rat. outside of a bucket
