MERANIMALS

I was dared by jediknl1 to create at least 3 different miranimals frolicking in the waves and under them. OK, so the waves are a little minimal. But they're there.

We bi-pedal apes seem to be running the show here at the taco stand called earth ("Says you!" sayeth bacteria). Therefore, I'm thinking for other species to survive, they will have to serve a purpose to us. Earn their keep, so to speak, or join the rest of the 99% of species that ever existed in extinction. I'm not saying this should happen. I'm just guessing this will happen.

So how will our fellow animals make it? It won't be food. That will be grown in gene-vats. It won't be labor - machines do most of that now. It won't be commercials - computer animation won't pee in the studio. No, they will have to exist by amusing us. In the future, we will tire of the internets (or all of the tubes will get clogged). Instead, we'll engage in genetic entertainment. We'll manipulate ourselves and other creatures to appeal to our whimsical fancies.

I bring you a glimpse of the future: the Merbear, Merbat, and my favorite, the Mermoose. What does the Mermoose drink? Mermoosas, of course! Bwa-hahaha.

To bid, go here.
