Coyote HRT: Week -1
Coyote HRT: Week -1
"Found that old business card I was given last year. Guess it used to just be the one guy? You could say you were a 'friend of Sabine' like a cheat code to get treatment... I don't think that works anymore. It's all automated"
major thanks to AyvieArt and Lakehounds for the inspiration

A species of blep from cold steppes. Like most species of furred tetrapods, it keeps its young in a pouch for months until they are hardy enough to run about and eat solid food. It eats lichens, roots and mosses primarily, but is an opportunistic scavenger if those prove scarce. It lives in groups of variable sizes, with complex familial dynamics, but these groups can be spread out over great distances; they communicate by loud bellows that cover long distances despite great winds.

Jiji (big one, meao-ixuí) and Igutsak (horned one, xoywren) with their adopted human kid.
Both xoys and meaos are able to nurse their offspring regardless of reproductive abilities or blood ties. If a meao is given a joey at any time, they'd be able to nurse it. If a xoy bonds with a baby, regardless of what it is, they'll be able to nurse it.
When a xoy's body begins preparing to nurse a baby, their horns halt any growth progress and fall. Their horns will only start a new growth cycle after a couple months feeding the baby. This is so most of the body's energy can be focused into mammary tissue growth. Here Igutsak has already been nursing for a while and his horns are growing back again, covered in velvet. (Or maybe he was just growing his horns and now won't even get to see them fully grown as he'll cast those soon)
Jiji wouldn't be able to help him with nursing as their species has joeys rather than babies... which means that even if they mananged to latch into a nipple it'd only produce enough milk to feed something less than a thumb tall. She is still able to put the baby on her pouch though, and shes often carrying her around in there.
I didn't think much about baby size/age or horn growth x time passed nursing a baby this size in this pic, I just wanted to draw them all together. Maybe I'll polish those more in the future and you'll see Igutsak sporting different sized horns or a bigger/smaller baby 🤔

This is a collage of sketches from yesterday’s train ride and shows the progress from loose doodles towards the Oilmouth creature. The second image is a close-up of the collage’s right part in order to show how the thick, fleshy flaps of his face look open and closed :)

Finally, A short guide on Aspils is finished!
It’s an open species, so feel free to draw them for a personal use or as a commissions and adoptables! (Please, credit me as a creator of the species if you draw them)
Feel free to ask me anything about them
Different, but all very pat-pattable!
Northerns live in a harsh climate, so they need the thick fur to survive. Fur of median subspecies way softer, southern aspils are smoooth. Climate also affects their colors.
Who do you like more?

“Harrison Ford has a new Peruvian snake species named after him”
"These scientists keep naming critters after me, but it's always the ones that terrify children," Ford told Conservation International. "I don't understand. I spend my free time cross-stitching. I sing lullabies to my basil plants, so they won't fear the night."
"The snake's got eyes you can drown in, and he spends most of the day sunning himself by a pool of dirty water — we probably would've been friends in the early '60s," he said. "It's a reminder that there's still so much to learn about our wild world - and that humans are one small part of an impossibly vast biosphere,"

These small kullau are part of a species that lives in large groups, up to thousands of individuals, who fly together throughout the sky to catch small flying bugs that they eat.
They tend to favor wetlands to nest; the abundance of their prey makes it ideal for them. During the period when they raise their young, their fluffy whiskers get even fuller, and those catch and trap extra bugs in them, which helps them get extra food to their babies.
Outside of those periods, a flock travels here and there, mostly following ideal weathers for hunting in the sky. Due to this, seeing them is often a good sign that the next few days will be warm and sunny.
