America Rat, Germany Rat, Mexican Rat...
Or different cultures?
Ooo! I really like that one! The only problem is that there are so many!
How do we decide which ones to do?
By Continents?

Possibly with accessories/garments from that culture. ie, China is panda, India would probably be tiger or elephant, Australia is kangeroo or koala, or maybe endangered animals?
Symbolic animals really peek my interest. I think it would depend on who is doing it though. I think that if we go for the Continents idea, then people can decide if they want to include other animal marking/mutations.
This is because some cultures have really unique masks/facepaint/colors/designs that could work really nicely. =)
(ie, Japanese masks[gigaku] or geisha make-up; India Henna[which I guess could be incorperated into elephant/tiger designs]) It might be hard to incorperate many cultures of a continent (Asia consists of Russia, India, Japan, China, etc).

We'd love to here what you think!
This poll will run until March 25th. The Celebration will start on April 1st(no jokes! haha).
World Rat Day is April 4th! Make sure to do something special for your rats on that day(whether they be real or fictional)!
