The fact he’s named kinda brushes over the fact this is a wild elephant. Born in the wild, raised in the wild, the only human interaction is watching the safaris. And after mean humans shot him, he decided the best course of action was to go visit the nice humans who just take pictures in hopes they’d help him. And then, even though they didn’t help him right away, he trusted that because they continued to be nice, he was safe, and they would help him.
also the people saw an elephant and were like “that’s a ben”
i hope he tells the other elephants where they can get help
Orphans who were rescued, raised, and released by the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya have communicated that it is a place of safety to other elephants who’ve never even been there.
Injured animals will show up there when they have been harmed by poachers because they know it is a place where they can get help!
i am very glad elephants have a functioning yelp system

Okay so I’ve been doing animations the hard, long, impractical way for always, and I go about this way;
Here we have the first picture, this is my base.
I then lower the capacity on that base and make a new layer and draw the next frame. I go on with this until I reach a complete loop. I then go back and make adjustments, before I make each frame an individual saved image and try it out in an editing program where I put all the frames in as pictures and then play. This was a 14 frame animation and if all layers were on at the same time it would look like this:
Aerick intensifies!!
Then I used gif maker to make it a nice hq gif and tadaa!
So you might be saying: Lion why a guide on drawing black people? Well young blood it’s because a lot of people cant…seem…to draw…black people..Amazing I know.
Racist (caricatures) portrayals of black people have been around forever, and to this day people can’t seem to draw black people like they are human. If your artwork resembles any of the above even remotely your artwork is racist and offensive. If you try to excuse that as a stylistic choice you’re not only a terrible artist, but racist too!!! Congrats.
Whitewashing is also a problem. A lot of people refuse to draw black features on canonly black characters. While this example isn’t colored, lightening the skin-tone of a character is also considered whitewashing. So lets start with features!
Now all black people have different noses thats a no-brainer, but black noses tend to have flatter bridges, and wider nostrils.
Please stay from triangular anime noses and small button noses.
Your drawings should not depict black people with abnormally large noses. (Especially if you do not draw other characters this way)
If you feel like the way you draw lips on black characters is offensive or resembles a caricature,it probably does and you should change it. ABSOLUTELY AVOID PLACING LIPS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE.
Hair is so diverse! Please get used to drawing braids, locs,kinks and coils! If you can learn to draw ringlets and long waves you can learn how to draw black hairstyles.
Add clips! Learn how to draw baby-hairs and never be afraid to add color Pinterest and Google are free my dudes! Also try using square brushes for blocking in coils.
For those who watch both Harry Potter and Wild Kratts!
A very real question.
• What hogwarts houses would each Wild Kratt member be in?
• What would be their patronum?
• If they brought a pet what would it be?
I REALLY want to know because I just saw Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindelwald and got that crazy idea, despite suffering from a migraine that was horrible. 💗💙💚💛
Her editing is unparalled by any other MUA on YouTube.
Her IG is @ wvrthy and her youtube channel info is on there. She makes and sells her own highlighters.
She deserves more subscribers
here’s her shop! she makes highlighters and other makeup meant to show up on all tones of skin, and her highlighters are incredible. just look!
support her! she’s got awesome other colors, too, besides the gold and the ones in that swatch. my personal favorite has gotta be the pinkish one she named “aphrodite”!
just look at these!!
if you can afford to, give her some business! businesses like her are much better to support then people like jeffree starr who is a notoriously racist devil.
her makeup is also just generally 100% better and also better for you, as big makeup companies tend to put icky shit in makeup.
tl;dr support businesses like wvrthy! wvrthy, keep being awesome!
are you fucking serious this entire post is god tier
“The Kent State shootings (also known as the May 4 massacre or the Kent State massacre)[3][4][5] were the shootings on May 4, 1970 of unarmed college students by members of the Ohio National Guard at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio during a mass protest against the bombing of Cambodia by United States military forces. Twenty-eight guardsmen fired approximately 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others, one of whom suffered permanent paralysis.[6][7]”
Don’t forget that basically half the country thought the students deserved it…
Another picture from Kent State.
But it was not just Kent State, eleven days later Mississippi Police fired 150 rounds into a dormitory at Jackson State College, killing 2 and wounding 15 black protesters.
Btw half of the students killed at Kent State weren’t even protesting, they were just there
What in the absolute fuck
When the Irish guy has known about this since he was like 8, but it’s suspiciously hard for Americans to learn about…
I literally only know abt this bc my parents are hippies it’s fucked up
I only had a vague idea of what this was and what happened until I did my own research on it.
Carry a fork with you. If someone tries to rob you, pull the fork out of your pocket and say “thank you, Lord for this meal I’m about to have” and charge at them with the fork
