Dusky-Footed Woodrat – Signed Fine Art Print
$19.95 – $27.95
Information about the Dusky-Footed Woodrat:
The Dusky-Footed Woodrat is a nocturnal mammal native to the forested areas of Mexico and California. They are sometimes called “packrats” or “trade rats.” The Woodrat builds large, doomed dens that can be as large as several feet. These large protective dens usually discourage potential predators. While they are solitary animals, except when breeding, they will live in communities where there are several dens close to one another. It’s been recorded that Dusky-footed woodrats of California will selectively place California bay leaves (Umbellularia) around the edges of their nest within their stickhouse to control levels of parasites such as fleas.

Artist’s notes:
The Dusky-Footed Woodrat was completed on 11.6.2012. This rat is part of a large project for the California State Parks I’ve been working on for a few weeks. They’re renovating a park building in Topanga Canyon (not far from Los Angeles in the mountains near the coast on the north side) They wanted 30 animal illustrations for the project. Most of them I had already drawn so I set about completing illustrations of the remaining 7 images, with the Dusky-Footed Woodrat being one of them.

Margay – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Margay:
The Margay is a smaller member of the feline family. It is native to southern North America, down through much of Central America and most of South America. Like many other species of cat, the Margay is a solitary hunter. It prefers remote sections of very dense tropical and subtropical rainforests and cloudforests. It looks similar to the Ocelot, but the head is a little smaller with longer legs and tail. The cat weighs from 5.7 to 8.8 pounds (2.6 to 4 kilograms), with a body length of 19 to 31 inches (48 to 79 centimeters), and a tail length of 13 to 20 in (33 to 51 centimeters.) Because of unregulated hunting and habitat loss this cat is considered endangered by some environmental groups.
