African wild dogs are endangered, with an estimated 7000 remaining. If you purchase this as a print on my etsy I also donate 20% to @painted_dog_conservation who run conservation, education, and outreach programs to help African wild dogs . . . . . . #nature #illustration #pencil #art #animal #oxford #etsyartist #estyart #wildlifeart #wildlifeartist #natureartist #drawing #jenmuir #platypusradio #artist #wildanimals #wildlife #sketch #graphite #conservation #wilddog #painteddog #africa
African painted dogs at the #oregonzoo rest in a patch of late-afternoon sunlight. The lovely dentition being shown off by the dog in the back is part of what makes these #canids such successful and specialized carnivores: modified carnassial teeth allow them to shear meat quickly and effectively. #africanpainteddog #wilddog #doggo #zooanimals #lazyafternoon (at Oregon Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqs9LdBhKoJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=129461lzhqkbc
