obviously the dinosaurs would have to figure on the list,but i would love to see a real dragon and a unicorn (although i can remedy that by sticking cornetto cones onto shetland ponies heads when they are sleeping 😆

oh and a mammoth (hmm now if i can just get some coconut matting/superglue e.t.c 😉

Grufalo

An Elephant the size of a border terrier.

A border terrier the size of an elephant.

Thunderbird

A westie that isn’t annoying to everyone but its owners.

Sorry, actually meant Terror Bird

Here’s a handy picture with a man and gun for size comparison

Thunderbird

I was sat watching Thunderbirds with my then 3 year old son. We’d watched a few epsiodes together previously. He turned to me and said ‘That one’s got a string coming out of his head!’

I said ‘Well, that’s ‘cos he’s a puppet’.

About 3 minutes later he said in a slightly crestfallen, wobbly bottom lip kind of way ‘Are all the Thunderbirds puppets then Dadddy?’

It was like I’d told him Santa doesn’t exist or something. Poor lad.

So, in summary, the Thunderbirds are real, in some 3 year olds head somewhere.

[edit] well that’s that anecdote wasted 🙁

You’d like a museum I went to once where all the natural history specimens were grouped by size rather than by any biological or geographical relation to each other. Some very large or very small specimens were represented by scale models which meant there was an Elephant, an armadillo and and a flea in the same case because they are all the same shape and colour.

Personally I’d like to see a dog playing pool

Woolly Mammoth. We should stop having wars and spend the time and money making one.

Snow leopard

A dog that picks up and disposes of it’s own excrement.

Kangarillapig.

Nessie

nice choices so far (how the hell could i have forgotten godzilla 😳

forgot this bad boy/girl too 😀

Fly my pretties!

This

A proper Scottish Wildcat. (like, in the actual wild)

sea serpent would be good at the next olympics , and a few wolves round about the place wouldn’t go amiss..

Dwarf cow. Make one the size of a labrador, get it to produce a pint of milk a day, sell it to the middle classes and retire from the sales.

Or a unicorn.

The Pushmepullyou from Doctor Doolittle. Always wondered how one would actually do a dump, with have a head at both ends 😯

Possibly, I only know “it” under the name “Beast Jesus”.

I actually had the chance to see a real chibrador (i.e. the byproduct of a chihuahua and a labrador genetic cross).

Generating such an abomination is only possible whith a female labrador and a male chihuahua (the male can only do the job when the labrador sleeps due to height handicap)…
This animal looks fantastically dumb (body of a fat labrador with chihuahua features: small height and head), always a great moment remembering it.

An honest politician?

A griffin would be cool. Or maybe a cyclops. Pretty much anything from a harryhausen film really.

Or maybe a cyclops

Actually cyclops exist:

the trash heap from Fraggle Rock always looked she’d give you a good cuddle

oh, and some doozers

and Wembley so I can stamp on his head

Actually cyclops exist:

Weird. Not quite what I had in mind.

Not quite what I had in mind.

Those are due to developmental abnormalities during foetal life, this is also documented in cows and humans I believe.

I don’t think they are able to survive for long though.

Kraken

The triple breasted whore of babylon.

Some of the mythical big hitters off of here maybe? Surely some fearsome and ghastly sights.

and manbearpig.
