Animal welfare issues are often regarded as politically peripheral. To me that is a mistake. These issues are at the core of who we are, what we value, what sort of society we want to live in, and whether we want to live by our professed values or betray them.

This is one form of consciousness, listening to Jimi Hendrix alone. Yours is another. Cats, cows, lynxes, bats, sparrows, geckos, worms, insects, bacteria… molecules, atoms. Reality is forms of consciousness.

Have you heard of #Whalefall? The phenomenon in which the body of a dead whale sinks to the ocean floor and its mass becomes a food source and habitat for a myriad of deep sea creatures. A topic near to my heart, this is one of my new prints available first at #ECCC.

The mimic octopus (Thaumoctopus mimicus) is a master of disguise. While other octopuses can use their chromatophores for camouflage, the mimic octopus is known to impersonate a variety of different animals, a behavior that is only shared with it's relative the wunderpus.
