A series of illustrations honoring eleven different endemic Brazilian animals. Some of the animals were chosen to bring awareness to their threatened conservation status and others because either they're only endemic to Brazil or because they're very popular amongst Brazilians, like the capybara. The illustrations include a banner with "Brazilian Fauna" written both in english and portuguese.
