If I were to write a children’s story, then this curious animal would have to feature in it; he is so charming, and looks so mournful. He seems to have little buds of horns between his ears, unless they are curls, and he seems to have a cloak around him, unless he is a funny sort of lion. He has knobbles down his forelegs and a very strange body, and I can’t quite tell in the photo whether it is the shape of his back leg or a tail curved in a peculiar way. If I were any good at drawing I would draw him; in the meantime, I shall just ponder what story he would feature in, if I were to write about him.
