@considernature submitted: I found this lovely fellow in my garden in Maryland, USA (agricultural zone 7a). He's very pretty, looks almost opalescent. Have you got any ideas as to what they might be?

My submission for @considernature 's art competition~ 🫧🐬 #considerart2023
Meet the vaquita! They are the world's smallest species of porpoise, (measuring about 5 feet in length), and can be identified by their distinctive black markings on their lips, fins and eyes. They live primarily in the Gulf of Mexico, and are one of the rarest dolphins in the world- but sadly this is because vaquitas are a critically endangered species. These adorable creatures have been hunted to the very brink of extinction for human consumption- specifically because they're believed to have medicinal benefits, but there's no scientific evidence to support this belief.
I've always had a fondness for the ocean and its sea creatures, and after learning more about vaquitas from Consider Nature's blog, I just had to draw one so that more people would know about them! The vaquita as well as many other species are suffering due to our carelessness, and climate change is only getting worse, which is why I'm happy to participate in this contest regardless of whether or not I win. I want to help spread awareness and hopefully inspire others to do the same 💙

Consider the Olm
Another piece I made for the contest. I was not sure if I should submit it, but I figured why not? Also Olms are super interesting animals. I had no idea they could live up to 70! @considernature

World Nature Conservation Day!! Nature needs Nurture . We have plenty of days named after nature and dedicated for its welfare but is it making any justice for nature.. Nature has given us so much! Right from our life to food and all the other resources that we rely on, but what are we giving back plastic, chemicals and just poison that is just hazardous. It's time for us to take nature into a serious consideration and value it! Let's start by simple stuffs May be by following • Zero waste challenge • Use paper bags & cups instead of plastic Avoid buying the stuffs that comes with a lot of package that includes a lot of plastic Always find a way to reuse something instead of throwing it away May be by growing small plants in all the waste plastic bottles Or by choosing public transport when possible.. And definitely by nurturing nature we will be able to give it back to nature #naturehood #naturesway #conservation #lovenature #givebacktonature #worldnatureconservationday #greenbeing #greenpanthers #considernature #savetheearth #saveplanetearth #instabloggers #readbetweenthelines #readthecontent #content #time #planetearth #awareness #ecofriendly #ecofriendlyliving #ecofriendlyhome #ecolive #ecosystems #floraandfauna #florafauna #influencing #influencer #mylifestyle #myblog #instagramblogger https://www.instagram.com/p/B0c5EhhAZnB/?igshid=1fsmrwgymkq7e

Hey. You.
It's tortoise time.
Tumblr media
This is the Karoo padloper, one of the smallest tortoises in the world. This itsy bitsy lil guy reaches a maximum length of 4.3 inches, and lives in the Karoo, a semi-arid region in southern Africa that rivals the Amazon Rainforest in terms of species richness and diversity. Check out the new article at Consider Nature to learn more about this adorable species and what YOU can do to help protect it!

Consider Art I: 2022
Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is having a pleasant holiday season and has recovered from blacking out from Thanksgiving gravy poisoning. This holiday season, I’d like to introduce a new tradition at Consider Nature. As you may know, Consider Nature is dedicated to shining a spotlight on some of the animal kingdom’s most underrated members, animals who get overlooked despite being fucking awesome. To help highlight the beauty of these funky little guys, I would like to introduce the first Consider Art Competition!
For Consider Art, artists are asked to create pieces depicting or inspired by an animal covered in the Consider Nature blog. For those who are not familiar with the blog, I have written articles on the following animals:
Olm (Proteus anguinus)
Indian Purple Frog (Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis)
Pygmy Hippopotamus (Choeropsis liberiensis)
Scaly-foot Snail (Chrysomallon squamiferum)
Kaua’i Cave Wolf Spider (Adelocosa anops)
Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex)
Submissions will be judged based on their originality, quality, successful depiction of the animal, and whether or not the judges of the competition and I subjectively like it. All submissions are due JANUARY 6TH! Please check the submission guidelines below before entering your piece, as there is a specific process for entering a piece of art in this competition.
Prizes:
Here at Consider Nature, we are aware that exposure doesn't do a very good job of putting food on an artist's table. So, the top three art pieces submitted for the competition will receive prizes (they aren't going to be big prizes because I don't do this for money, but I'll do my best). The winning artists may choose to receive their prize as an Amazon or Etsy gift card (depending on how much they hate Jeff Bezos).
First place will receive a $50 Amazon or Etsy gift card.
Second place will receive a $25 Amazon or Etsy gift card.
Third place will receive a $10 Amazon or Etsy gift card.
All winning pieces will also be posted on the Consider Nature blog as well as on our social media (with full credit to the artists and links to their social media). Honorable mentions may also be awarded as part of this competition, depending on how many entries there are. These pieces will not receive a cash prize.
Submission Guidelines:
Any kind of art will be accepted for this competition. Keep in mind that if you make a physical drawing, painting, or sculpture, you will need to photograph or scan it to submit.
All submissions must be entered by January 6th, 2023. No entries will be considered after this time!
Please submit your piece as PDF, JPEG, or other common image file type. Pieces that cannot be opened by the judges on an average computer will not be considered.
To enter your piece into the competition, complete the following steps:
Email your submission to [email protected]
Post your submission on Instagram or Tumblr, using the hashtag #considerart2022.
When you post your piece, please provide a link to the Consider Nature article that corresponds to the animal represented in your piece. This will help other people find and enjoy Consider Nature.
Please make sure that you follow these submission guidelines, as improperly-submitted pieces may not be considered.
Rules:
Work submitted for this competition must be the artist's own original work.
Art made using AI tools such as DALL-E or Nightcafe will not be considered for this competition.
Pieces submitted must represent one of the animals covered in Consider Nature blogs.
Consider Nature has the right to reproduce pieces submitted for this competition on social media or on the Consider Nature website for the purpose of promoting the artist’s work or the Consider Nature blog. To be clear, pieces submitted for this competition will never be merchandised in any way without the artist’s express permission (and artists will be compensated).

This is my most-recent article on Consider Nature! Come learn about the scaly-foot snail, a unique and beautiful snail from the darkest depths of the ocean which has a form of defense unlike any other animal: a shell made of literal iron.
Fair warning, this article is Halloween-themed, so CW: drowning, thalassophobia.
