Crocodilia
My favorite extant critter is Alligator mississippiensis.
Something about them just speaks to me in a way that even other crocodilians do not. They're relatively relaxed and I don't feel any primal fear toward them.
Not the clearest image but I was lucky to see a Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis) the only other alligator species alive.
That being said, there is really no critter I have any animosity or great fear of. Just a general respect of them.
Aves
Birds hold a special place in my heart. Did you know they are warm blooded reptiles?
Testudines
Squamata
Olivia, my logo inspiration.
Did you know snakes are lizards?
Lissamphibia
Andrias japonicus, the Japanese Giant Salamander
If you ever find yourself overwhelmed, channel your inner frog.
Mammals
Arthropods (especially insects) are so criminally hated by the wider public despite how important they are to literally every living being on our planet.
Did you know that "Fish" is not a taxonomical term? There is no grouping that could make include every "Fish" without also including the Tetrapods. Either nothing is a fish, or you and I are fish.
