Bow Tie Guy of the Day: Deinotherium
Deinotherium (dīnəˈTHi(ə)rēəm)
This is part of my elephant series of bow tie guys. The deinotherium is an extinct relative to the modern elephant. They were known as the “hoe tusker” and lived during the Middle Miocene era. Adults stood over 15 feet tall and over 15 tons making this the third largest land animal to have ever existed. They roamed Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Bow Tie Guy of the Day: Quokka
Quokka (ˈkwäkə)
This small, short faced wallaby lives in Western Australia. They are about the size of a domestic cat and are listed as vulnerable on the the endangered species list. Most posts of them on social media list them as the happiest animal on earth due to our personification of them. We see a constant smile on the their face.

Bow Tie Guy of the Day: Vermonotaur
Vermonotaur (vərˈmän əˌtôr)
The Vermonotaur is an ancient creature that roams the forests of Vermont. Part man part moose, this docile creature secretly helps the sugarer by checking taps and collecting sap.
This is the second version of this bow tie guy. The first can be seen here. I like this one better.
