Hundreds of Beavers Movie

Yes, it's more expensive than streaming, but it's genuinely the only way we make any money from our movie (that and physical tickets sold at theaters). Plus we REALLY went all-out on the special features. You can watch the entire film in a four-screen VFX breakdown.

For #FindsFriday I offer this gorgeous 15,000 year old engraving of a reindeer calf, nervously standing next to its mum. Found in the Madeleine rock shelter in the Dordogne, France. Part of the excellent Ice Age Art exhibition at the Cliffe Castle Museum in Keighley, Bradford.
A photo of a fragment of bone with the outline of a reindeer calf carved onto it.
