I have not been able to find a list of what the over 300 creatures are on The Tree of Life. So I'm starting a list, please help especially if you know the real name of some of them.

Let's start with a picture and go from there.

Is the top circled part a shark fin?

The bottom circled part is a millipede.


I'll search through all my ToL pics and see if I have any other angles for you...as well as really search through the current pics you have up.
 
65. Lobster- above buffalo
66. Millipede- above monkey

The millepede was my mystery creature and now I can see it so clearly, thanks for pointing it out.

Other pictures with different angles would be great, thanks for the help!
 
Ok quickly went through some of my pictures and here are a few that I have found.

Far right (beside the tree) - owl

Wolf - just below the owl

Snake across the neck of the wolf

Just left of snake's head - large snail

Immediately left of the snail is a meerkat

Above the snail (right where the two large branches split) there's a bat with it's wings spread out

To the left of that there's a gopher (? at least that's what I think it is)

Hope these have helped. :flower3:
 
It always amazes me how two people can look at the same thing and see totally different things.

"Far right (beside the tree) - owl- he's listed as #15 on post 2
Wolf - just below the owl- I thought that was a bear #17 post 2
Snake across the neck of the wolf- I see an octopus #19
Just left of snake's head - large snail- #20
Immediately left of the snail is a meerkat- #21
Above the snail (right where the two large branches split) there's a bat with it's wings spread out- #22
To the left of that there's a gopher (? at least that's what I think it is)"- I thought that was a beaver #58

This is the picture I used for this section of the tree.
