We’ve now begun packing to move, and I’ve come across all sorts of discontinued and sold out Nut and Bee items tucked into corners, so I figured the most fun thing to do with them would be a giveaway!
This time there are two prize packages. Each one contains:
- FIVE assorted 4×4″ prints, signed with my maiden name
- FIVE assorted magnets
- THREE assorted paper stationery items
To enter, just leave a comment on this post and tell us which animal you would most like to observe in the wild. For me, I think it would be the sloth!
I will do two random drawings from all valid entries at noon on Friday 10th July (New Zealand time).
N.B. You must leave your comment on the post at www.nutandbee.com, not any syndicated feed services that provide their own comment features. Also, don’t worry if your comment doesn’t appear immediately! First-time comments are held for moderation (to avoid spam), but I will make sure everything has been approved before I do the drawing. Finally, please make sure you enter a valid email address so I can contact you.

For me….hmmm. I think lemurs!! Especially sifaka lemurs! *boing boing*

Deep down, I want to see a unicorn… but more realistically – elephants. Elephants amaze me!
Posted by Betsy on July 7th, 2009.
HOLY MOLY! This is so exciting.
Seeing the narwhal or a golden mole would undoubtedly be the most incredible thing ever. Observe the golden mole: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v733/avalyn1/goldenmole.jpg :D
Ps. Sloths are AWESOME!
Posted by Rachel on July 7th, 2009.
I think seeing a chinchilla would be great, they are so grumpy looking!
Posted by Melanie on July 7th, 2009.
It would have to be a cat. You said “in the wild” and to me, once a cat leaves its home, who knows what it gets upto!?! Is it a masked super hero saving the day? Is it stealing someone’s socks? Or just sleeping in the sun :)
Posted by Zeb on July 7th, 2009.
I would love to go to the Galapagos Islands and see all the incredible wildlife there – particularly those crazy old tortoises…
Posted by Catherine on July 7th, 2009.
I would love to see a jerboa!

Pandas! But only baby ones. The big ones are just bears I think, therefore scary. Thanks for the giveaway!

Posted by Jema on July 7th, 2009.
An okapi, for sure! But I’d also be almost as excited to see a moose.
Posted by Sarah on July 7th, 2009.
Naked mole rats! Lots of them! I mean, aside from the fact that I’d have to be underground at the mercy of their nasty sharp teeth. o_O
Posted by hosie on July 7th, 2009.
oh…i think tiger cubs, playing in the snow in asia.
Posted by .the.inspired.phoenix. on July 7th, 2009.
Giraffes! This request isn’t necessarily for me, of course, but the small one who proudly proclaims “zebras are my favorite animal” and… if I go, she goes.
Of course, when she says zebra, she means giraffe; I’ve never been able to figure out how those are the two animals she actually confuses…
Posted by Amanda on July 7th, 2009.
I’d LOVE to hang out with sloths! And i really want to check out dugongs in the wild, they’re so cute!
Posted by Melissa on July 7th, 2009.
Ooohh … this is a tough question!! All of them???
Polar Bears! Babies are just so cute!
Posted by Nadea H. on July 7th, 2009.
I had to think about this for a little while, but I would love to see orangutans in the wild. I would find it fascinating to see their social interactions.
Being David Attenborough would be the best thing ever…
Posted by Sabrina on July 7th, 2009.
Oh my gravy, here I was all excited to shout NAKED MOLE RATS!!! but someone already beat me to it. Clearly your blog readers are top-notch.
Posted by Missive Maven on July 7th, 2009.
Noooo! You stole my sloth answer!
(Yes, ‘sloth’ popped into my head as soon as I read the question and before I read the next sentence XD)
Posted by William on July 7th, 2009.
Oh, hard. But after several minutes of delightful animal thoughts… I am going with elephants. Enormous, rough, smuffly, elephants. Clomp clomp whuffle!
Posted by Lisa on July 7th, 2009.
The sea otter. They must be the cutest animals ever to exist, and they hold hands! <3
Posted by Nicole H on July 7th, 2009.
emperor penguins but they have to have chicks with them. probably the cutest thing on earth.
Posted by Sara on July 7th, 2009.
Oh man, so many hard decisions! I’m going to have to say the pandacorn because of the rollerskates and pooping rainbows though!
Posted by Joanna on July 7th, 2009.
Hmmm … the animal I would most like to observe in the wild is the red panda. The Houston Zoo calls it the cutest animal in the world and I’m likely to agree.
Posted by Kat on July 7th, 2009.
Definitely a penguin, because I’ve always wanted to go to Antarctica. (Also, I like penguins!)
Posted by Hillary on July 7th, 2009.
I would love to see the leopard in the wild. Leopards are my favorite wild animal, I think I would have a leopard patronum. :) I’d want to observe them so that I can see what REAL leopard print looks like, and see if it looks anything like all those prints I baught at joanns. :)
Posted by Audrey on July 7th, 2009.
I would love to swim with a sea turtle, or I would also settle for manatee.
Posted by Anne on July 7th, 2009.
Fennec foxes! I love their giant ears.
Posted by Sarah-Rose on July 7th, 2009.
I’d have to say the cheetah. They are fascinating, and I want to know how they run so fasssssssst
Posted by Jasmine N on July 7th, 2009.
Hmmm, very tough question!! Methinks a kangaroo! They are so strong and jumpy, plus they have the cute little pouch!!
Posted by MacKenzie on July 7th, 2009.
Love reading the comments! I’d have to go with the Giant Squid
Posted by ArtSnark on July 7th, 2009.
Deer! Simple, sweet & calm.
Posted by desiree fawn on July 7th, 2009.
I would love to see hedgehogs. They’re just so cute and fearful.
:]
Posted by Emily on July 7th, 2009.
Lemurs, though I don’t know if I could contain my joy.
Posted by fea on July 7th, 2009.
Would dinosaurs be a valid answer? If not then tigers because I love the way they move, all slinky and killerish.
Posted by Jacqui on July 7th, 2009.
Tigers, for sure. Stealthy :D
Posted by Sus on July 7th, 2009.
A MOLE!
Also, a silky anteater (which has the best defense posture ever) and a blue whale.
Posted by Sarah on July 7th, 2009.
I think I should like to see a wild guinea pig in South America :)
Posted by Imogen on July 7th, 2009.
Epp, great prizes!
Id have to choose a snork. Do cartoon creatures count?!
Posted by Debra on July 7th, 2009.
Tigers, of course :)
Posted by Liz on July 7th, 2009.
I dream of swimming with pymgy hippos! Or hanging out with the lesser-spotted Bunnylump…
Posted by Jo on July 7th, 2009.
Flamingo’s, a huge flock of pink flamingo’s!
Posted by Diane on July 7th, 2009.
I would have to say any of those large cats – tigers, lions, leopards, panthers, jaguars, cheetahs, etc. They’re all such amazing creatures! But I definitely can’t pick amongst them!!
Posted by Tiffany on July 7th, 2009.
I get excited when I see any animal in the wild, haha. Heck, pigeons excite me!
But if I had to pick just one, I’d have to say… an ocelot! They’re so cool…
Posted by Theresa on July 7th, 2009.
I would like to observe an aardvark in the wild – always being outwitted by those pesky ants.
Posted by MB on July 7th, 2009.
I’d love to come across a wild hedgehog. One of my co-workers saw several on her recent trip to Wales and I was so jealous!
Posted by Mo on July 8th, 2009.
Either giraffes or penguins. I guess it depends if I want to be cold or warm…
Posted by Aricia on July 8th, 2009.
Thanks for the giveaway! I love your site btw. I visit it all the time for inspiration! :D
I would have to say an okapi. The fact that they’re so shy would make seeing one in the wild extra amazing. Plus they’re adorable with their little zebra legs and giraffe faces. *snuggle*
Posted by Maria on July 8th, 2009.
Wild boar, kind of like pumba, because they seem tempramental and unusual
Posted by PixelHazard on July 8th, 2009.
i have only gotten to see them at the Zoo in Cleveland but I would love to see an Anteater in it’s natural habitat. It’s the most active Zoo critter I’ve seen yet and it still looks very chill and playful. My little guy has a ball he pushes around with his nose, it’s precious! And he’s big!
Posted by TshirtFiend on July 8th, 2009.
I’d like to see Bigfoot or a Yeti! :-)
Posted by AmyGurumi on July 8th, 2009.
I’m with you with the Sloths hence the photo I use in message boards goto http://www.slothrescue its the one of the sloth sitting in a pile of flowers http://www.slothrescue.org/Gallery/
Have you seen http://www.slothrescue.org/Facilities/
Yes you can breckfast with baby sloths.
Posted by Dewi.Casgwent on July 8th, 2009.
Hm, I think it would be fun to observe panda bears outside of a zoo. They’re so adorable!
Posted by Katherine on July 8th, 2009.
I’d like to go to South America when the monarch butterflies are “nesting” there. To see butterflies coating everything and all of the wonderful flora would be amazing!
Posted by Jenny on July 8th, 2009.
i’d love to see a bunch of little otters eating oysters off of their tummies :D cutest thing ever! :)
Posted by raylene on July 8th, 2009.
I would like to see a whale – a humpback!
Posted by Lunamarysol on July 8th, 2009.
WHAAAAALES!!! <333
Posted by Callie Kreutzer on July 8th, 2009.
I think I would most like to observe cuttlefish. They’re such incredible, smart, and social critters. And adorable!
Posted by Strubisatoaster on July 8th, 2009.
A viscacha. They look so fat and wise…but then I favor rodents.

Posted by AKB on July 8th, 2009.
Spider monkey!!
Posted by Chelsea on July 8th, 2009.
Gorrila’s of course :D
Posted by Roland on July 8th, 2009.
Polarbears! Even though I don’t really like the cold I’m pretty much obsessed with them!
Posted by Stacey on July 8th, 2009.
Another Red Panda fan here – i’d love to see some in the wild :)
Posted by Lizzy on July 9th, 2009.
I would most definitely like to observe a meerkat in the wild. I have only ever seen them in person at the zoo!
Posted by autumn on July 9th, 2009.
I want to observe wombats in the wild. They’re so cute!!!!
Posted by Haleigh on July 9th, 2009.
I would love to see degus in the wild. My degus are so hilarious at home in their cage, and I’d love to see them climbing in trees and hanging out with wild degu friends, burrowing, and exploring the real world. My place is better than the animal shelter where I found them, but it would be amazing to see what they’d do back in their natural habitat.
Posted by Molly on July 9th, 2009.
I would love to see a penguin in the wild. Good luck with your move! This is so exciting!
Posted by Jenna on July 9th, 2009.
Omigod meerkats. Definitely meerkats.
Posted by Arlette on July 9th, 2009.
A hippopotamus in all its chubby submerged glory! Albeit not too close, I don’t want to make it mad since I hear they’re cranky.
Posted by Christy Guy on July 9th, 2009.
i would love to see an okapi in the wild, they are just so neat!
Posted by Alli on July 9th, 2009.
A koala bear. yup, definitely a koala. maybe two at once? that would be something.
Posted by Allison C. on July 9th, 2009.
I would love, love, love to see a secretary bird
Posted by Lyndsey on July 9th, 2009.
I’d like to see a squid… I’d like to >be< a squid…
Posted by Leslie McCombs on July 9th, 2009.
I would love to see Visayan warty pigs munching around in the wild; we have two (including a little baby) at our zoo, and they’re so sweet when they cuddle, with their crazy mohawks and funky teeth. :-)
Posted by Lisa on July 9th, 2009.
a pygmy marmoset! Inspired by the picture in the paper today.
Posted by Andrea on July 9th, 2009.
I would like to see a baby orangatang:)
Posted by Melanie Horiguchi on July 9th, 2009.
I have a soft spot for all black-and-white animals, like pandas or penguins but my favourite to watch in the wild would be orcas.
Or see a gang of juvenile keas take apart a car in the NZ mountains, haha :-D
Posted by Christine on July 10th, 2009.
Definitely the manta ray!!
Posted by Anna on July 10th, 2009.
I would love to study wild horses (equine and such)
probably in africa or somewhere similar (:
Posted by astra cole on July 10th, 2009.
I’d like to see a Japanese Macaque making a couple of snowballs!
Posted by Mel on July 10th, 2009.
I think snorkeling/diving into a coral reef and seeing all the diverse fishes and corals would be most exciting for me.
Posted by Kawa on July 10th, 2009.
There is nothing more exciting than seeing animals (especially exotic ones) in the wild. I always wanted to kayak with the orcas in an Alaskan bay.
Posted by Lori on July 10th, 2009.
A great question to ask and a lot of diverse answers too!
I’d have to say that seeing seahorses would probably be the most exciting for me.
If I could be in the water diving and seeing them up close and personal, that would make it that much better!!
