Description Peregrine Falcon-fastest animal on the planet, can dive bomb it's prey at speeds exceeding 200mph...that's over 320 kph

Great White Shark-i like all sharks in general, so many shapes and sizes, but the Great white is the most badass

Grey Wolf-Wolves are fierce wily critters, this particular wolf I drew is the alpha male, much like silverback gorillas of Africa, the alpha's coat will change colour to reflect it's authority over other individuals in the pack...

Common Raven-super smart, cunning and efficient predators, it is fairly easy to tell ravens and crows apart, Raven's not only are larger, but have a much thicker bill while crows have a smaller pointed bill, also the Raven's Caw is more like a deep throated croak compared to that of the crow's...

King Cobra-Truly the king of snakes, longest venomous snake species in the world, the king cobra can grow close to 20ft long and can rear up to 6 ft when provoked, just imagine meeting this guy face to face...more often than not it will be because he's pissed off at you...

Monitor lizards are also personal favs of mine, but I was running out of time this morning and had to head out...

i love these. the only one of these i have never seen up close is of course is the great white, my favorite apex predator. if any shark is worth seeing and protecting, it's this one.

Oh my god, three of my favorite animals are here! Peregrine falcon, wolf, and king cobras! Well, actually I prefer Indian cobras, but kings are cool too!

I understand why you'd like the indian cobra better, they have those unique patterns on the back of their hoods as well as a wider hood giving it a more distinctive shape...actually I like all snakes and the cobra species are my favourite snakes, including spitters and rhingals as well as taipans and mambas which are close relatives to cobras
