    If love was kittens and your heart was a city I would lay seige to you and fling their carcasses over your walls until the disease and the smell and the sight of them had so demoralized you that you fell to me.

    Because of the nice spring weather yesterday I have made a zoo-expedition. Here are a few of the fotos I made. Feel free to use them as a reference for drawing or painting but please ask me when you want to use them otherwise.

    Enjoy!

    If no one has done that by december, and it's not breaking any copyright, I'll scan some (if we still have them) when I go home for winter break.

    Those were awesome.

    zoobooks are still in print and mostly use the same illustrations from the 80's. You can probably dig up the ones you want on eBay. I have a pretty good collection myself :3

    some chimp photos

    http://chimps.photowebsites.net/

    Elephants, Gorillas, Koalas, Manatees, Mixed-Herbs, Orangutans, Parrots, Rabbits, Rhinoceroses, Sheep, Warthogs, Zebras:
    http://hedweb.com/homeherb.htm

    This has ALOT of photos of just about any animal that you would want, but the have a watermark over all of the pictures. But it is still VERY VERY worth checking out, alphabetized and organized by type of critter.
    http://www.critterzone.com/galleries.htm


    Use the search tool on the left, a very kick ass site.

    Large good pictures of animals.
