EDB04 Wolf – Bust (Timber)
“Now this is the law of the Jungle –
as old as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,
but the Wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk
the law runneth forward and back –
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.”
The Law of the Jungle
by Rudyard Kipling
EDB04R Wolf – Bust (Grey)
“Now this is the law of the Jungle –
as old as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,
but the Wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk
the law runneth forward and back –
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.”
The Law of the Jungle
by Rudyard Kipling
EDB03AM Venus – Bust (Amethyst)
Rose-cheeked Adonis hied him to the chase;
Hunting he loved, but love he laughed to scorn;
Sick-thoughted Venus makes amain unto him,
And like a bold-faced suitor ‘gins to woo him.’
Venus and Adonis
by William Shakespeare
EDB04F Wolf – Bust (Fenrir)
“Now this is the law of the Jungle –
as old as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,

As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk
the law runneth forward and back –
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.”
The Law of the Jungle
by Rudyard Kipling
EDB05W Gorilla – Bust (White)
“In the jungles of the hills the gorillas are grounded.
Beasts among the trees, they are bounded.
They are brutal strength,
though gentle enough to hold a baby in their arms,
to love, and to cradle, keep away from many harms.”
The Silverback Gorilla
A poem by Lysa Schuler

For human eyes he’s not a feast.
Farwell, farewell, you old rhinoceros,
I’ll stare at something less prepoceros.”

EDB08 Panda – Bust
“Panda! Panda! quiet yet quick, Eating away on his bamboo stick
What dances do you do at night, When all the animals are tucked in tight?
What forest, jungle or prairie field, Will you protect with your shield?
In which tree would you rather dine? Where you can relax and rest your mind?”
The Panda
A Poem by Sapher Wolf

“If we look straight and deep into a chimpanzee’s eyes, an intelligent self-assured personality looks back at us. If they are animals, what must we be?”
