Hard to believe there’s actually a bat that’s perfectly colored for Halloween!
The Painted bat from Thailand.
Orange and black animals
Or scary animals
Or…both,
the following creatures enter into the spirit of Halloween
A Werewolf?
Nah, just a Brown Hyena.
But he’s spooky-looking all puffed up like that,

This next creature lives in caves; it’s the Spotted Tail Cave salamander. It’s a little slimy, but safe. So feel free to get close next time you’re deep underground. 🙂
Not another werewolf?
Nope, though he looks scary, the Maned wolf is so shy that even other Maned wolves make him uneasy!

And this is one of my favorite reptiles, a large desert lizard with a very cool name…the Gila Monster!
Why monster?
Completely outlined in bright orange, this Pinnate batfish is hard to believe! Perfect for Halloween!

Nudibranchs! I love these guys! Check out my previous post on the amazing varieties and colors of these little ‘sea slugs’; Eye Candy Brought to You By God
BUT, though amazing-looking, this sea slug, Cyerce Nigrican, can cast off his “petals” and poison the water around him!

And then, there are the squirrels, who happen to LOVE to eat pumpkins and will even steal them!

So here are three Halloween photos that make me laugh!
