Hullo! This week's theme is Fandom Animals. We'll be taking a look at some of the real life versions of animals that have inspired fictional ones in games, stories, shows and otherwise. I definitely won't be able to cover every single animal everywhere ever, but I think making a good attempt should definitely be possible. I'll also be trying to cover types of animals that we haven't yet. Variety, right?
Today we kick off with several Pokemon! Since it's FS, we're starting with woopers, then because... well, I couldn't NOT do joltiks, considering what this account is called. After that, two other cute things- sandshrews and sandslashes then drilburs (or diglets). Can you guess which real life animals we're using?
