Fearsome Crittober Day 9: The Agropelter. #art #fearsomecritters #inktober #inktober2018 #ink #monkey #agropelter #folklore #americanfolklore

A monkey-like animal ranging in habitat from Maine to Oregon, the Agropelter sits in hollow trees and kills passing humans by hurling branches at them with its whip-like arms. It is said to feed on hoot owls and woodpeckers, the scarcity of which will thankfully prevent the Agropelter species from becoming too numerous.
