Odd Creatures Week...Wednesday Edition

Well, since this is such a popular feature, I have decided to continue on with Odd Creature Week. Yesterday's entry drew two guesses. I think Walt was closest with his answer, "The Octomom in heat." Well done Walt! It is actually a "Dumbo Octopus," named so because the appendages resemble elephant ears.

So, maybe a few more clues might help all both of you that choose to play this really, really, really fun game!

This little guy is South American, like The Pink Fairy Armadillo from Monday. This is a photo of him/her after being shorn. His/her hair is used to make clothing, such as ponchos, socks, sweaters, and even blankets.

Below you will see him/her in full "really having a bad hair day" mode.

Good luck!
