Discuss your various national animals and why you chose them here.

i said no opinion but it would be better if it was the grey wolf or something like that.

The Bazalope....

I wanted something unique... something that says.. "Yes... I'm wierd... so what? Um... Why are you looking at me like that?"

Of course is lt is based of the Antelope but with Baza instead of Ante...

My national animal is the human...

after all, humans actualy here you calling them national animal

every species has its own virtues.

the cameroi'an lionbear resembles neither the bears nor lions of earth.
what it lacks in physical phorce and sighs, it makes up for in raw psychic power. this is it's natural defense; psionic illusion and induced avoidance.

the actual physical creature itself is no larger then a very small earth ferret. though it has pronouncedly 'saber' canine incisors, and dispite it's fearsome appearance for its diminuative size it can be quite docile and friendly, depending of course on the intentions of anyone attempting to approach, and it can and easily does read these quite clearly.

hostile armies invading a forrest have been known to be driven insane by a few small families of these creatures.

ours is the lion, it repersents Africa's strengh its nobality of yester year and its courage to change,its leadership and its status :fluffle:

Can animals become extinct? as mine is in on the verge.

Why whats your animal? do people here think i made a good choice - mines is the fox btw

Well, our national animal is the goomba, however the koopa is in close contention.

lol,:D that was class but i think yours should be the Piranha Plant!

My national animal is the Tigre. It's Tiger in Italian and I'm a natural born Italian so it worked.

i picked the white-headed capuchin which is the cutest monkey ever!

My nation's national animal is a "Miervatian Burrowing Owl".

I created a NSWiki entry for them some time ago:
http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Miervatian_Burrowing_Owl

It still needs some work, including photos and a regional map. But I'd like to encourage others to consider using NSWiki to entry your own national animals. :)


The reason I choose a burrowing owl is I live in the small town of Davis, California, and we have a large number of burrowing owls in our native flood plain (Davis, like most of Central California is supposed to flood in the winter and be bone dry in the summer). I used to see the little owls at one street corner near my best friends' home, a mated pair ... though one day they stopped standing on the street sign.

In general I've always liked owls, because like myself, their activity cycle seems to peak around dusk.

Miervatian is the name of one of my country's cantons ... and is taken from my last name.

We chose an unusual animal as our National Animal, the Toro Bravo(proper species name, Bos Taurus Africanus)
As bovines go they are highly intelligent and graceful, they are good to eat, and have velvety fur, and besides that, they teach people courage.

i believe in what animals symbolise. mine is snake. some says it means enemy and some says it is wealth. sometimes enemy makes money and sometimes money makes enemy. it is ambigious. you can never be sure, you cn never trust. it can be your enemy orrrryour friend. it is up to you..i like it!!:cool: :cool:

Ours is the Goat.

It is the symbol of the zodiac sign Aries, which is the founder of the nation's zodiac sign. It symbolizes strength, integrity, wealth, and luxury.

My national animal is the human...

after all, humans actualy here you calling them national animal

Lol, I'd be scared to live in your country if the national animal population issue ever comes up... (whether you eat em or just kill them and bury them in ditches...)

I think that you could have gone a little more specific on the national animal. Otherwise, it's great! :D

well, you certainly could have made a more unique choice. but, I've seen worse.
perhaps you'll think of something better later, I did, cabbits are a much better ideal of my nation than fluffy puppies.

good choice of national animal dude, its not the most original but its still cool. My national animal is the chav, cause theres so many of them.

I chose the dove because it's a universal symbol of peace, and that's pretty much what my country's all about.

Our national animal is the ambit. You can tell a Lloegeyr unionist by his necklace of ambit claws.

As to your wolf, wolves are good. Versatile. Werewolves. The Fenris wolf. Mowgli's wolves. The wolf that snuffles and scratches at the door, the day before pay-day. Yay wolves! A-rooooooo!

Our nations animal is the ant-monkey, because a psychotic nation needs a psychotic animal.

I chose the Clam. I feel we are all subconsiously obsessed with Clam. Clam is where we came from, Clam is our reason for living. Rejoyce in all that is Clam. Clam is also our national dish; all citizens enjoy eating Clam. The first quantum physicist was a Clam. You're around friends when you are with Clam.

Once you've got a deadly wasteland, a creature like the three-eyed tentacle beast is simply inevitable. Once the wasteland becomes toxic enough, I hope to see a mutated three-eyed tentacle beast, with... three eyes, and tentacles.

My national animal is the Wild Green Squid, based on a very bad joke I heard once...

(woo! first post here!)

I chose the (Rampant) Lion after the Scotish lion for the royalty. I think its the sweetest animal. The wolf though is pretty cool.

Mine is the camel, just because they rule.:mp5:
