Miniature Howler


This fine example of a Miniature Howler poked its face out at me on my walk to work from its perch on the back of a truck. These creatures are mostly harmless, though thought by many to be pests, and named after the piercing screams they eternally issue. Some experts think that this Miniature variety came first into existence when a Howler (a much larger, nocturnal creature that has a taste for raw chicken) and a robot squirrel mated. Due to its size and ability to forage, the Miniature Howler has infested much of Northern Thailand.
