After wearing a bunny suit in the hot sun all over the noon hour, I was a little pooped when I got back home so I didn't have the energy to do what I wanted. Instead I just made a bunch of shreepish derpimals. The descent of shreep is a long and tangled path, and several shreep-like animals are different enough to be considered species in their own right.
From top: a common shreep. Note the forward-placed eyes and vacant gawk typical of its breed.
Fancy Southland Shreep. The combined weight of its pronounced jaw and crown make this shreep unsuitable for heavy fieldwork.
Baggy-cheeked Full Shreep. The 'full' in this case refers to its high, thick rump. This breed is prized for its amount of meat. Nomadic herders often make a delicious stew from the well-portioned cuts.
Spring-tailed Rock Shreepa. Rarely seen, as its preferred habitat is inhospitable mountain crags at extremely high altitudes. Folklore says it hoards treasure, but it's probably just a dumb animal.
Working Southland Shreep. A large, sturdy beast popular in regions where buckows are unsuitable.
Black-tufted Mountain Shreep. Unlike the more commonly known Mountain Shreep, the Black-tufted Mountain Shreep's horns have grown far past the edges of its skull in an impressive display that causes a ton of problems if they get stuck in a wooded area.
Bristle-backed Shreemp. Originally bred to miniature size during a short-lived fad among a vanished caste of nobility, it has proven a tenacious survivor due to its ability to digest even more than the common shreep and its ability to reproduce three months after birth. The heavy tusks are anchored to a thick set of shoulder muscles, allowing it to dig its way through most obstacles on its incessant quest for food.
Short-statured Sharphorn Shreep. A relatively recent breed, its lineage can be traced to the original crossing of a mountain shreep with a dwarf shreep. It fares poorly in the wild.
