Hybrid Animal Artober Day 2: Armadillove A hybrid animal based on Episodes 119 and 121 of the Just the Zoo of Us Podcast, which feature Pigeons and the Nine-Banded Armadillo. #artober #animalartober #pigeon #armadillo @justthezooofus.bsky.social

Pencil drawing of an armadillo with spread pigeon wings and a feathers fanned-tail at the end of its armadillo tail.
Coloring has been digitally painted and is inspired by a mix of the referenced animals with gray being the dominate color, though the shades vary from dark gray to light gray and white is spread across the inside of the wings. The tip of the nose and inner ears are a pight pink. There are also hints of magenta and teal on the neck and shoulder areas, hinting at iridescent colors like on a rock dove.
The drawing is on top of a pale blue halftone patterned circle that was digitally added to the drawing.

Close up of the torso and upper body of the hybrid armadillo-pigeon. The coloring slightly richer than in the full view image.

Life hack from a marine biologist: When your blue sea dragons need a little snack, remember that they never evolved to swim, so you have to drive the Portuguese man-o-war around and pick them up like a little bus 🎥 by me during field work :)

I was listening to @justthezooofus.bsky.social and the hosts were talking about having recurring nightmares about suddenly remembering that they had a bunch of pets they should have been taking care of.... I have these nightmares ALL THE TIME! It's my most frequent recurring stress dream.

Mostly stupid podcasts that cater to left leaning very online men, but not chapo, oddly, but I've recently got into @justthezooofus.bsky.social because I think they're hit the nail on the head when it comes to banter, something many nature podcasts fail at.

@justthezooofus.bsky.social I loved your kinkajou episode! I volunteer at a sanctuary known for wildcats that cares for other carnivorans, including kinks. On our aggression scale (for safety protocols), they are rated the same as tigers. Thanks for so clearly explaining why they make awful pets!

someone from our discord just told me about how albatrosses only recognize their chick if theyre actively sitting on the nest, so if the chick falls or climbs out the parent doesn't recognize them anymore until they climb back in & all I can think of is

Yeah I'd recommend it!! I'm on ep 19 and the hosts are delightfully nerdy (about video games, dnd, and other media up my alley in addition to animals) and funny, especially the more they get into the groove of podcasting, and they also try to be transparent about their sources!

I started listening to the podcast Just the Zoo of Us after having it on my radar for ages and it truly fills the void left by no longer religiously watching Animal Planet like when I was a kid that I've wanted to fill, it's such a delight 🥺💜
