Well I usually like my animals alive – but so its just not even possible to see unless you travel to the ends of the earth and even then you are not guaranteed to get a glimpse. I would love, love, love love to go to Antarcica and see Emperor Penguins but until I win the lottery I’ll probably have to make do with the stuffed one I saw at the Natural History Museum in London. Another really cool thing we found there was an extinct GIANT SLOTH !!! How amazing, I had no idea they had even existed, and we are very big fans of sloths here at Made by White.

After quite a big search through the museum I found my new favourite animal the Slow Loris, I fell in love after seeing this video and I just want one!! Again better when its alive but hey I don’t think we have these little guys here either, just possums that don’t like being scratched on their bellys.

Some animals we did see alive and well were deers and squirrels, I wanted to keep one of each and take them home, they are much better than possums and kangaroos!! The deers lived on the grounds of a Castle in Knole Park just out of London, they just roam around happily and are quite tame (some of them). The little squirrels we found playing around in the Buckingham Palace Gardens, they were only interested in you if you had some nuts to share with them but were super cute. Lx
