Hello! This week we're focusing on interesting / different animals that are close or important to people in various works of fiction. This is because we've had a bunch of secrets about furries and dæmons and otherkin and such recently, so, well, why not take a look at some of those animals? Today we focus on the dæmon in the His Dark Materials trilogy.

Let's go for it!


Pine Marten


Cat


Snow Leopard


Golden Lion Tamarin


Arctic Hare


Alpine Chough


Snow Goose


Osprey


Caracal


Serpent


Crow


Terrier

And I don't recall there ever being a spider one- but if there was, it'd be pretty neat, right? You could keep it with you in your pocket and all!
















Here's one that I think looks a little shy:

She's Hyllus diardi, and they're actually the species that's considered to be one of the biggest jumping spiders in the world. The male and female ones look quite different, but they all have their own brand of sweet. Here's a picture of a tiny little baby, then one of a male following that.
