Time for the unveiling of the sticker sheet! Available to Masters of Disguise, Amazing Mimics, Sticker Mimics, and as an add-on for other tiers!
This is a 4"x6" sticker sheet featuring mimics that I couldn't fit into the book. Here's some details on these amazing animals:
Termite-mimicking Rove Beetle (Austrospirachtha carrijoi): A beetle that lives parasitically inside termite nests. To blend in, it not only smells like a termite but has an overgrown abdomen shaped like a termite's body!
Cheetah Cub (Acinonyx jubatus): Young cheetahs have a poof of gray hair on their backs that make them look like honey badgers. Honey badgers are fearless predators, so most animals stay away from them.
Cinereous Mourner Chick (Laniocera hypopyrra): These birds begin life with fluffy orange feathers that make them look like flannel moth caterpillars, who hide a painful sting beneath their long hairs. The chick even moves like a caterpillar to make the disguise more convincing.
Pinnate Batfish Juvenile (Platax pinnatus): The stunning color and frilly fins makes the fish look like a poisonous flatworm swimming around. They lose this bright coloration when they become adults, instead traveling in schools for protection.
Fungus-mimicking Orb Weaver (Taczanowskia waska): Recently discovered in Ecuador, this spider is unusual because it mimics a dead spider infected by a fungus! It captures unsuspecting insects that get too close.
Buff-tip Moth (Phalera bucephala): A moth that mimics a freshly broken twig. When resting, the moth folds its wings to form a cylinder so that the pale spots on both ends look like splintered wood.
In other news, we're about $400 away from the first stretch goal!
