You Wild Animal! by Mario Zucca – Ravensburger – 1000 pieces
After completing a puzzle that was darker than I normally like, you’d think I would have chosen an image that was bright and colorful. Nope. This artwork isn’t bright or that colorful, but it was exactly what I was in the mood for. It was a bit of a challenge, but I loved it!
Great Ravensburger quality, and I especially loved the matte finish; it made working with the darker sections much easier to not have to deal with the glare.

Have you ever heard of an Umbrellabird? I certainly hadn’t!

The x-ray fish is also new to me, and I just couldn’t resist the sloth and the sea otter peeking out from the left – so cute!

The way the skunk is depicted just makes me smile. This was my first time with artwork by Mario Zucca, and it was fantastic to assemble. There were plenty of words (which always is a bonus for me), and each animal image was so interesting and fun.
Other puzzles with his art are mostly maps, but this one was very different; I don’t think I’d be interested in any of his map puzzles at the moment but I enjoyed his collection of animals very much. 💛
I did this same puzzle and believe it or not that rattlesnake was difficult for me. All the twists and turns – color me embarrassed!

Why embarrassed? We all puzzle differently and what one finds easy another finds difficult – it’s just how our brains work – and they are all unique. Nothing to be embarrassed about at all.

I’m sorry about the notifications. WordPress isn’t great with that – I’m subscribed to other blogs but never receive notifications for their new posts either. 🤔
