Field guide No. 361
Fennec and the fog-sucking vacuum
Hoovering up the atmosphere.
A fennec fox stands by a red vacuum cleaner on a rug patterned with pumpkins and bats, and the nozzle is pulling in a cloud of glowing green fog. The rug was fine before.

Ammonite awakening on shaleFossils are what’s left after the animal has gone. This one came back for its body.
