my draw this in your style challenge (DTIYS) to celebrate 10k on my instagram!
GUIDE: try your hand at this scene of a yanomami girl (from a people whose territory straddles the Brazilian / Venezuelan border) hanging out with a jaguar. Use the hashtag #biophoniesDTIYS & say where you’re from (bonus if you are on native land & can name which tribe(s)! I will share the results & send a postcard with a drawing to some of my favorites.
Only 5% of the world’s population is comprised of indigenous people living on their ancestral land. But these people protect 80% of the planet’s biodiversity, the heart and health of the earth itself. Almost all these people & the nonhuman life they exist with are under threat by either militant border security or capitalist “development”, leading to murders, burned / razed forests and polluted water. South American indigenous people account for a huge portion of these defenders, and I wanted to honor that.
yet another reason to give the #landback
looking forward to your entries bless up

Koalas doing what they do best…
I have had a few asks for photos of Australian animals, so I hope you enjoy these. While koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) are cute, they aren’t the most energetic creatures in the world and their favourite pastime would have to be sleeping. They are unfortunately a threatened species due to loss of habitat, dog attacks, bushfires and disease, but organisations such as the Australian Koala Foundation,WIRES and the WWF are doing wonderful work to help save these unique animals. Long may they continue to enjoy nap time!
