Wildlife Conservation is a topic that has been very near and dear to my heart since I was a small child, so it was only a matter of time for me to expand my Kit Card series to include various wildlife species. As the same with all of my others Kit Cards, these designs are simple and easy to print, but instantly recognizable as your favorite animal.
In the universe are billions of galaxies, in our galaxy are billions of planets, but there is Only One Earth. It is important to remind ourselves that we only get one chance to protect and conserve the natural beauty of this world, and it is my absolute pleasure to bring awareness and life to some of the species that are most endangered of never being seen again.
To do my part, I am converting all rewards/points/boosts earned on this design during the Animal Frenzy contest on MakerWorld into equivalent USD and make a donation on behalf of this community to my local zoo, to assist in their conservation efforts.
If you would like to be apart of that charity contribution, follow the MakerWorld link below.
Current species included:
African Forest Elephant
African Lion (Male and Female)
Dromedary Camel
Hippopotamus
Mountain Gorilla
Polar Bear
West African Giraffe
White Rhinoceros
More to come.
The kit card connectors were designed to easily snap away, but for the cleanest finish it is recommended to use snips to remove them. Each animal may have a slightly different assembly, but the fundamentals remain the same amongst all of them.
Snap all connectors to free each piece
Slide the ears into the cutout at the top of the head
There are animals (such as the Lion and Gorilla) that use pegs and holes instead. For these you simply place the peg through the hole in the body and then squeeze the other side onto the peg.
Slide the larger connector into the cutout at the front of the body
Slide the smaller connector into the cutout at the back of the body
Align to the two cutouts on the legs with the connectors and slide in
Repeat for the last leg
Enjoy!
