West Indian Ocean Coelacanth – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the West Indian Ocean Coelacanth:
The West Indian Ocean Coelacanth is one of two extant species of coelacanth. This fish is well known for being a "living fossil" as one was found in 1938, and was a commonly held belief that the animal had gone extinct millions of years ago. They are large fish, growing to over six feet (three meters) weighing about 200 pounds (80 kilograms) Because the coelacanth is such an ancient life form, they are more closely related to lungfish, reptiles and mammals they are are to the common ray-finned fish. The fish is so rare that when Hendrik Goosen, the captain of the trawler Nerine who discovered the coelacanth would have to look for a decade to find another one. The species is considered critically endangered and there may be a few as 500 individuals in the wild.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

Western Bluebird – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Western Bluebird:
The Western Bluebird is a medium-sized thrush. They're native to the open grasslands of western North America, usually adjacent to forests or small stands of trees. Their range is from southern British Columbia down into central Mexico, with much of the population concentrated along the California coastline. These passerine birds feed on insects such as beetles, caterpillars and spiders, but will also eat berries and other plant matter. At one time the Western Bluebird was considered threatened, but now this has reversed and the bird is actually expanding it's range, perhaps due to it's ability to adapt to areas where forests have been cleared and grasslands have taken their place.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

Western Camel – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Western Camel:
The Western Camel is a member of the genus of Camelops, which were camels that once inhabited much of western North America up until the end of the Pleistocene, which ended some 10,00 years ago. While much is known about how this camel might have lived because of the close relation to extant camels (the Bactrian and the Arabian) is it unclear just why this animal went extinct, along with nearly all of the Pleistocene megafauna on various continents around the world. While many models of this extinction are based much on the arrival of hunting humans into the area, it does not account fully for why nearly all of the large land mammals - save for Africa - went extinct.

Western Desert Tarantula – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Western Desert Tarantula:
The Western Desert Tarantula -also called the Arizona Blonde Tarantula or Mexican blond tarantula - is of the genus Aphonopelma. It has a limited distribution in the deserts of Arizona and adjacent parts of Mexico but can be very common within this range. The name "blond tarantula" refers to the carapace, which is densely covered in pale hairs and contrasts strongly with the all-dark legs and abdomen. The spider can grow to be between 3 to 10 inch (7 to 25 cm) While it is a burrowing spider, it is often seen during the summer rainy season in southwestern deserts. The female is usually a uniform tan color, whereas the males have black legs, a copper-colored cephalothorax and a reddish abdomen. Their burrows can be as large as 1 to 2 inches (25 to 50 mm) in diameter, with some strands of silk across the opening. The tarantula is usually found in saguaro cactus dominated plant communities. Like other tarantulas, they are nocturnal predators that never venture far from their burrows unless it is to find a mate. In winter they plug their burrows with soil, rocks, and silk and survive in a relatively inactive state. During this time the animals live off stored fat reserves. Tarantulas have an interesting defensive capability in addition to venom. Some of the hairs on the top of the abdomen are specialized for defense. These urticating hairs, as they are called, are tipped with backward pointing barbs. If a tarantula is threatened in any way, it brushes these hairs into the face, paw or other body part of its attacker. Once these hairs are embedded, they are irritating and very difficult to remove because of the barbs.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

Western Lowland Gorilla – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Western Lowland Gorilla:
Western Lowland Gorillas are large terrestrial primates native to the montane, primary and lowland forests of Central Africa. It is the smallest of the gorilla sub-species; males usually stand about 5-6 feet (1.5-1.8 meters) weighing roughly 300-600 pounds (140-270 kilograms) Like other gorillas species the females are smaller than the males. The gorillas spend much of their time feeding on the forest floor. Their diet is mostly based on plants such as bamboo, but they will also eat insects and small reptiles. Western Lowland Gorillas are the ones that are usually seen in zoos, and there are several hundred in captivity all over the world. Due to habitat loss, poaching and other environmental pressures all gorillas in Africa are considered critically endangered, and the entire population in the wild of is thought to be less than 50,000 total animals. The Cincinnati Zoo in Ohio is noted for it's success in breeding these rare apes.
