A cool animal that might ebolb someday, you never know

I was just thinking of some of my favorite animals, like bears, porcupines, and innocent nooishes. Most of them have something pretty cool about them. For instance, innocents and those udders of theirs. Sharks don't have to breathe. Monkeys have disposable thumbs on their feet, etc.

Then I started imagining what the most ultimate animal of all would look like. I think it would a combinimation of all the best parts of real animals. First of all, it's gotta be big, and thick skin is probably a good idea too, so let's start off with a trinocerous and get rid of all the parts besides its body.

Obviously he's gonna need legs, but check this out: There's no rule that says the front and back legs have to be the same. The back definitely have to be frog legs, or else how's he gonna get way up in the air. Not tiny little frog legs, of course - you have to make them bigger in your mind so they'll fit the body.

Anyway, with those big old legs in back, he won't really need anything in the front to walk on, maybe just something to support him when he's on all fours. We could use the opportunity to sneak in something a little more functional, not to mention way cooler.... Gibbon arms.

With frog legs and gibbon arms, our animal's gonna be able to fly up into the trees and start swinging around grabbing small animals and eating them before they can even react. Or hor hor, this is getting cool. But wait, we're not even done yet. I just remembered he needs a head and all that.

Hold up though. His back seems kinda boring and exposed from the air. I'm thinking stegosaurus plates. Yeah, definitely. For the tail, while we're going all crehistoric, might as well have the best and give him one of those anklesaurus tails with the huge bone knob at the end that smashes everything.

Oh man, I wish I could see this guy in action! :8O


Ok, so we have the body, the legs... oh yeah, a head. This is the most complicated part. The head needs to be cool or the whole thing's pretty much ruined. Obviously he's gonna need a lion's mane. The face will be one of those bright red faces that one kind of monkey has. I mean, really bright red. He'll have yak antlers up top (why not), and a huge bull elephant seal schnoz.

Something's still not quite right though. Hmm, let's see... oh yeah, duh! The head is at the end of an elephant trunk, so it can snake in and out of the branches and eat things. Now we'll finish him off with some special touches, like orange body fur, a tortoise shell that he can pop back into just in case... um... a couple rows of shark teeth. Maybe a pouch.

Last and most important, a bulging bubblegum-pink molar dangling from the bottom shell for when he gets that thirst only the 'cycle can quench.

Darn, I wish I could draw really good! I'm gonna have to see if TMM or somebody can sketch this dude for me. I never really thought about how awesome animals could be. I hope God hurries up and envolves something like this pretty soon. There's gotta be some enbironment on earth that would require the services of a proboscogibbasaurus (that's what he'll be called).

Woo hoo! Man, this animal has me *stoked*. I'm gonna so see if I can draw a picture of him; I'll post it later if it looks alright.

No way! Well...maybe. Or hor hor, one or the other.
