Tatted Adelies

Adelie penguins are one of the most threatened penguin species and despite their size, they can band together and utilize the trash patches in the ocean and arctic to become bandits of the ocean.

Asbestos Owl

The Brown Spotted Owl's habitat is threatened by more larger wild fires caused by global warming. By combining with asbestos it will be able to withstand the fires.

Illustration

Band

One of the most docile and threatened creatures, pandas, utilize their mis-treated bamboo forests as defense for their habitat and lives.

Illustration

Butterfly of Biodiversity

The waste of water for non-biodiverse lawns for hundreds of thousands of homes threatens native plants and species that hold together the environment.

Byeee Catch

Sea turtles adapted with razor sharp fins and shells will allow for them to slice through ocean fishing nets that have by-catch (unwanted marine life caught in the nets) and free them, allowing marine animals to survive longer.

No Shot

North American birds of prey like the Eagle, Red tailed hawk, Falcon and North American Kestrel all have a more likely chance of being needlessly killed by birdshot and shotguns along power lines then electricity. By utilizing armor they will have... More

Slothy Sabotage

The three toed sloth is such a docile creature whose jungle habitats are constantly shrinking from deforestation and pollution. If they can fight back and sabotage human destruction they give themselves a better future.

Tire Marked

Cheetahs way of life are threatened by constant safari and human interference. By their patterns evolving they may have a better chance of blending in.

Trash Kings

With constant tourism along mountains and hiking, trash is left behind with no cleanup crew due to the altitudes and inaccessibility. By utilizing the trash to their advantage snow leopards can adapt and blend in with the trash for a higher chance... More

Amensalism- Thesis

Photoshop and Procreate pieces for my thesis project at OCAD University. This series depicts endangered and threatened species adapting to their new human-made threats by integrating that same threat into their biology.
