Little Fatty

Here is a raccoon just totally lounging at the Austin Nature and Science Center. To tell the truth the center had a lot of pretty easy-to-find animals: A big cage of pet rabbits, these raccoons, some ducks in a cage... not the most exotic of species. A lot the animals were also pretty damned fat. Their bob cat was a lard ass and this li'l porker can hardly see over his own belly. All-in-all it seemed like a pretty sweet life for a raccoon, but he was too lazy to even get up and say hello.

You should create a kids series with puppets called the "Li'l Fatties" that would be about a lethargic bunch of fat zoo animals. I'm sure it would appeal to the heftier children.

This picture is a great comment on the current state of America. Love the multiple meanings (the fattie raccoon, the angle, the cage[in the forefront], the fuzziness of the raccoon, the raccoon's 'mask', etc, etc). This is the best image you've posted thus far. I am in awe of your "eye."
