Dear Fantasy Authors

[commodorified]

Who are not graydon:

Have you considered including pangolins in your next book?

If not, why not?

Capybaras are also acceptable.

If these recommendations prove impossible to implement, please consider the advantages of the platypus as an animal which already looks as if it was built by a committee of amateur sorcerers. Surely your fiction can embrace this possibility handily.

I dream of running off to become a capybara herder. Very large, capybaras. Very findable.

Not at all prone to give birth halfway up a cliff...

Is there not a - we perhaps cannot say urban legend in this context - claim that there are still some feral capybaras lurking in the Norfolk Broads in spite of the massive cull? (on grounds of damage to fragile local ecology when they escaped from fur farms.)
