I know this seems non-gaming related, but it actually is. I would like to know what everyone's favorite animals are, real or imaginary, or if there is one you've never seen and would like to see.

"It's a Liger.  Half lion, half tiger.  It's pretty much my favorite mythological creature."

What movie is that from? haha....

One creature I've used in a lot of my games has been the sand shark... and I always seem to have a creature similar to a funnel worm and a winged ripper too...

Seahorses fascinate me. Especially the Leafy Dragon variety (phycodurus eques) with heavy camouflage.

I like hearing about myth creatures and when people speculate that they have witnessed one:

Chucabara (?spell)
Tazmanian Tiger, Wolf
BigFoot creatures (yeti, etc)
Champ/Nessie etc.

Ligar Zero? Isn't that one of the 'mechs from ZOIDS? :D

Fave creature, gryphon.

I've always wanted to see a wolverine (the animal not the super hero) up close. Preferably with out loosing my face or any other body parts in the proccess.


Of course there's always the legendary monkapotomus or rodent of unusual size.
In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Just remember: Upon seeing that Weasel of Unusual Size, colloquially known as the Wolverine, it is also a weasel of unusual ferocity, and, at least in Alaska, they have little fear of men, eat dogs, chase bears, and have been known to sit on hunters just for the fun of it. So up close may become uncomfortably close.

Oh, and they are smart enough to chew on the lock of the rifle....
