Cryptid of the Day: Giant Bushbaby
Description: The largest Bushbaby species is 15 inches tall, but there are claims of even larger specimens. In Senegal’s Casamance Forest, an eyewitness saw a cat-sized bush bay in June of 1985, and there was a second account from Cameroon in 1994.

Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)
Often cited as our closest living relative, chimps are highly intelligent and social animals. They live in a variety of tropical forest habitats in Africa, and are adept at climbing. They usually eat fruits, leaves, seeds, flowers, insects, honey, and soil, but they occasionally prey on larger animals. They will usually hunt primates, and carry out coordinated treetop hunts where some chimps drive a monkey into the waiting hands of an ambush. They use tools to help them obtain food, including sticks to fish for termites and honey, rocks to crack open nuts, and simple spears to kill Senegal bushbabies hiding in tree holes.

The first set of polls will go up as soon as I have finished writing the descriptions! In the meantime, I would appreciate if you could share this tournament around- it won’t be much of a tournament if there aren’t that many people voting! In going down the research rabbit hole I’ve found so many interesting species and stories, and I promise learning about them here will be worth your time!

Welcome to the YooHoo: Undead Unleashed blog!
Tumblr media
When the nefarious Big Boss activates a device that can bring forth an ancient power, YooHoo and his pals get thrown right in the middle of the resulting disaster! Joined with a protector of the forest with a rather big secret of her own, will the Senegal bushbaby be able to save the world, or will it fall by the hands of the swarms of the Undead?!
Available on both Wattpad, AO3, and Quotev!

Senegal bushbaby is listed as least concern, looking it up, so it's not endangered. Admittedly still kinda weird to buy a monkey and I have no idea what the relevant laws are in (I assume) Japan.
On one hand, it’s not one of the endangered bushbabies.
On the other hand, she got an exotic pet that I am 99% certain she’s not equipped to properly care for, those are nocturnal, have very sensitive eyes, and have needs that require a very specialized environment if not just left to thrive naturally in the wild.
Or, in other words, it’s not “kinda weird”, it’s fucked up and beyond stupid.

Yesterday I learned that Usada Pekora had gotten a Senegal Bushbaby as a pet a few months ago and I'm just sad man. I've hardly seen anyone (besides some few reddit comments) upset about this. I love her humor and chaotic personality but now I'm conflicted because I hate exotic pet havers..

Senegal bushbaby (Galago senegalensis)
Bushbabies are fast, agile little primates found in the dry forest and savanna of central Africa. They have large, flexible ears which, like bats, help them hunt insects in the dark of night. They can make incredible leaps from tree to tree where the woodland becomes sparse.

Round 1, part 2, match 14: chimps
Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)
Tumblr media
Often cited as our closest living relative, chimps are highly intelligent and social animals. They live in a variety of tropical forest habitats in Africa, and are adept at climbing. They usually eat fruits, leaves, seeds, flowers, insects, honey, and soil, but they occasionally prey on larger animals.

Bonobo (Pan paniscus)
Tumblr media
Once known as the pygmy chimpanzee, the bonobo is now recognised as a separate species. They live in tropical forests south of the Congo River, and eat fruit, leaves, honey, and small animals like insects and mammals. They are very social and less violent than chimpanzees. They’re also really horny, like all the time. They’re the only non-human species known to engage in tongue kissing and face-to-face sex, because of course they are. And as expected from a species whose sex lives have been studied as much as they have, both male-male and female-female relations have been documented.
