The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) is the largest of the true foxes and the most geographically spread member of the order Carnivora.

SIZE: On average, adults measure 14-20 inches high at the shoulder and 18 to 35 inches in body length, with tails measuring an additional 13 to 21 inches.

COLOR: Despite the name 'red fox,' multiple atypical colorations exist. These range from albino & leucistic types on one end of the spectrum to melanistic variants on the opposite.

DIET: Red foxes are omnivorous, and have a highly varied diet. They primarily feed on small animals, such as voles, mice, deermice, groundsquirrels, and gophers. Secondary prey species include birds (mainly Passerines, Galliformes, and Waterbirds) rabbits & hares, small reptiles, invertebrates, and shoretrapped marine life. On rare occasions, they may attack young or small ungulates. Though they primarily eat meat, red foxes will readily dine on plant material, including blueberries, raspberries, mulberries, apples, acorns, some grasses and sedges, and tubers.

FACT: Though generally unsuitable as pets, many are kept in Halsk households regardless. There have even been efforts to produce a domestic strain through selective breeding.

Diet: Unknown, supposedly, it thrives on cold weather and snow.
Fact: Articuno is a pokémon of legends, and is well-known in Gijinkian folklore. While there used to be a time that some gijinka were born with the characteristics of legendary pokémon, and were referred to as legend-blooded, put in high favour by the legendary creatures themselves and were to take a higher purpose in life, they were hunted down to extinction during colonial times. The Articuno became a national symbol of Gijinkia since the events of Harold the Great, who has born with the gift of the Articuno. He became reknown as the conqueror and unifyer of the kingdoms in what is now modern-day Gijinkia, and founded the Orian Empire at the time. Ever since then, the Articuno is one of the most revered legendary pokémon in Gijinkia not to be considered a deity under the Arceusist beliefs.

The Clam

Image
Pictured: Giant clam, about six feet wide

They're also the largest denomination of our currency. Big specimens like this fellow are too large to carry around, obviously, so we treat them sort of like Yap "giant stone wheel" money. A Sea Pony lays claim to a clam, but leaves it in its bed. If she decides to trade it in on something else of value, its new owner gets to claim possession.

Most clams of this size are owned by the various Sea Pony crews that control the turf where the clam beds are found. So, first you get the turf, then you get the clams, then you get the boys.

Our national animal (and our main species) is the otter, which looks like this.
I'm RPing a distant past tech nation populated nearly exclusively by five foot tall militant otters who are clearly superior to Lialoth's mice.

Lialoth's national animal and primary citizen species is the mouse. Particularly from the Roca (VAST majority) which might look like this.
I'm RPing a distant past tech nation populated nearly exclusively by three foot tall bipedal mice who are undergoing subtle speciation due to long lasting social policies.
If this is too ridiculous for you, you might want to opt out of RPing with me.

Our national animal is the Atlantean Wolf. It is a mixture between the Greek dire wolves brought over when Remus and his people first came to Atlantis, and a native Atlantean dog-like species of animal, with silver/white or damp gold fur depending on the area.

Size: The Typical Atlantean Wolf, from tail to tip of the nose, is around 80 inches long, and 300 pounds. An Alpha wolf is around 90 inches long, and 350 pounds

Colors: Northern Cohokian Atlantean wolves have a white to white-silver coat in the winter and in all other season a Silver-black coat Alpha males have a silver streak all year round. Mountainous Atlantean wolves (center of Cohokia) tend to be the same, unless they live somewhere on the top third of the mountain, in which case their fur is pure White all year round except in summer, when it is Silver Alpha Males have silver streak all year round. Southern Cohokian Atlantean wolves have Black fur all year except for spring, and some of summer in which case their fur is Golden. The Alpha males have a olden streak all year round.

Looks: Like an enormous, muscular wolf, but with sort of 'fangs' that go over the bottom lip in the same way that a sabre-tooth tiger's does, if they are domesticated, it is common for them to lack the 'sabre-tooth' feature. Also, unlike wolves, their fur is very short in most areas except for some winters in the north, or the Tundra mountainous regions.

Diet: In the mountainous regions, they feed primarily on Atlantean Ram, and Atlantean Mammoth. In the North, Deer, Moose, and Whale (they can swim. alot.). In the South, they feed on Jungle Elephant, and since many are domesticated in the South, steak.

Fun fact: In every single Atlantean or Cohokian war, the Atlantean Wolf's have played a huge part. The fangs of the Atlantean wolf, when crushed and consume, produces a numbing, pain relieving quality, this is the same effect that it's prey experiences when bitten.
