Sichuan Takin.......

Well.. I don't ususally post more than one a day.. At least not in a long time.. And I hate to drive those beautiful Sargent drawings further down the page... But I just found a really interesting animal over lunch.. I was searching for gorilla images (so expect to see more gorilla related posts again) and I came across an image of a Sichuan Takin... Very strange & cool animal... My first thought was... This looks exactally like the beast in disney's beauty and the beast... So I had to do a quick drwaing of it.. Do a search for them.. they're neat. they're considered a national treasure in China.. Which is the only place they are know to inhabit.. Or that's what I understood from the blurb that was on the page where i found the images...
