Marsupials - Blog Posts

Ok why haven’t I seen any kangaroo fursuiters? Like anywhere?

I’m sure there are some but I haven’t seen any!

And there are so many benefits!

1. Big enough to be human sized but not too big to in plausible so that it’s accurate.

2. Tail to lean back on if ur tired. (If u can figure out the mechanism sit the suit)

3. Kangaroos are plantigrade which means they have the same standing pose as humans and you don’t really have to change ur pose with padding as much and you get to have big ass clown feet heheh

4. They are from Australia. Boom. Instant inspiration, accent, and design ideas. (And Australia is just a awesome place in general (if u don’t count the giant bugs))

5. Last and arguably most importantly, BUILT IN STOMACH POCKET! You can store anything in there! Your drinks, books, pens, small animals, stickers, ID, and CHILDREN.

overall I think kangaroos would make the best fursuit type and are overall one of my favorite animals. I hope this inspires yall for ur own fursuit if ur having trouble because if I were to make or buy a fursuit a kangaroo would definitely be my first pick.

Have fun yall, hope you liked this! ^^

Lesser known small mammals (or mammals whenever i bring up people have no idea what im talking about)

Quoll ..a carnivorous marsupial native to Australia that spends most of the day sleeping in its dens. there have been 111 recorded events of quolls eating human remains (x) (pictured here is a spotted-tail quoll)

Numbat..an insectivorous marsupial from Australia that is diurnal (or is primarily active during the day). unlike other mammals that primarily eat termites, they have a jaw with 50 very small teeth. they live in tree hollows and block the openings with the thick hide of their rump

Hyrax ..a small thickset herbivorous mammal that is more closely related to elephants and sea cows than pikas and marmots. theyre found in africa, and they have rubbery paw pads that help them climb up rocks (this is a rock hyrax)

Solenodon... a venomous, insectivorous little mammal that is easily provoked into a frenzy of squeaking and biting. it uses echolocation to compensate for its poor eyesight, and females have two teats almost located on its backside (above is a cuban solenodon)

Sengi (elephant shrews (or better known as the get a look at the snout species))...is another insectivore that is more closely related to elephants than true shrews. they live in southern Africa and have relatively large brains for their size (a respectable 11 inches) (this is a black and rufous sengi)

Tenrec..omnivorous little mammal that lives in land, sea, underground, and in trees. there are many different subspecies of tenrec that can look like hedgehogs, opossums, rats, and shrews (this is one is a lowland streaked tenrec from madagascar)

I am so proud of Kanga for weaponizing Roo.

With Winnie-the-Pooh and The Battle of Hastings sharing an anniversary today, did you know that E. H. Shepard once drew this amazing scene for an exclusive book bag?

The Virginia Opossum, a fairly common animal in the southeast USA, but usually not seen out and about in the daytime. Always nice to have some possum pics!

Opossum

Had a visitor to my parent’s house last Friday. This opossum climbed up into the birdfeeder, then went for the suet. After he finished, he went back to the bird feeder and slept in the sun for a little while.
