✰ Tatsuma Adoptables ✰ 5+ ADOPTS UP! ARTIST SEARCH!

Tatsuma Adoptables

✰ ✰ ✰ ✰ ✰


✰ ✰ ✰ ✰ ✰

Plural: Tatsumi Singular: Tatsuma

A Tatsuma is a short, fluffy, and stocky dragon that is generally friendly and sociable! All Tatsumi have silky tails that are similar to horses' tails. They also have short, stocky legs with hooves. These traits of a Tatsuma give it its name, which is a combination of "dragon" and "horse" in Japanese! In Japanese, "tatsu" means dragon and "uma" means horse; combined, "tatsu" and "uma" create "tatsuma"!* In addition, Tatsumi generally have pointed horns on their body, but sometimes- in very rare cases- one can even have antlers! A Tatsuma always has eight eyes on its head. When a Tatsuma puts its head in tall grass while hunting, the eyes on the Tatsuma's muzzle can help it find small prey- like mice and rabbits- hiding in the grass!

*Thank you, seedcakes, for helping me come up with the name!

              Hunting & Diet
                How they hunt
                  Tatsumi are carnivores. Their incredible eyesight helps with hunting! They either hunt in shallow water or in tall grass. To hunt, a Tatsuma will use its long muzzle and dip it under water or in tall grass. It will stand very still and wait for prey to approach, which it sees with its six eyes on its muzzle. When prey approaches, the Tatsuma will quickly snatch the prey up with its large mouth.
                What they eat
                  Tatsumi eat small animals and fish. They can be found eating fish, crabs, bugs, small rodents, and birds.
              Habitat
                Where they live
                  Tatsumi live on a world parallel to earth! Their world is not inhabited by humans- it is filled with wildlife! Tatsumi can be found living in cooler climates of the world- their long fur helps them keep warm! They live in forests and near bodies of water where they can hunt fish.
                What they live in
                  Tatsumi live in dens dug under trees or fallen logs. They can even live in caves!

          question & answers

          Postby Horse » Fri Jun 24, 2016 10:54 am

              If you have any questions about Tatsumi or adopting, please look here before asking! The questions might already be asked <3 !

                How do I adopt a Tatsuma?
                Under the picture of the Tatsuma on this page, there will be tiny images of other Tatsumi below it! Click the Tatsuma that you want to adopt and see if it is up for adoption. If it is up for adoption, follow the artist's instructions on how to adopt it! You may need to fill out a form or make a piece of artwork to adopt it!

                Can I become an artist for the Tatsuma adoptables?
                If the artist search is open, then yes, you can!

                Can I get a custom?
                If custom slots are open, you can!

                I never seem to win a Tatsuma. How do I win one?
                Don't be upset if you don't win a Tatsuma! There will be many other chances to win one <3 ! Make sure to check out the adoptables often- there may be a first-come-first-serve Tatsuma up for adoption! Also, check to see if the custom slots are open! Maybe you can get a custom Tatsuma!

                Can I make/color my own Tatsuma?
                If you're not an artist for the Tatsuma adoptables, then no, you cannot. This is a closed species, meaning artists can only make Tatsumi! But you can adopt a Tatsuma or place a custom order if slots are open!

              Do you have a question about Tatsumi that is not on this topic? PM a staff member, ask on this thread, or check here to see if any of this information on Tatsumi answers any questions!

              Posting is now open! However, I'm still working on the front page & species <3

            I go by Horse! I'm a chill person who enjoys
            making music and writing. I love animals and
            horseback ride, which explains the username.
            I'm not too active. I may be slow to respond.
