Description A concept study of this little cute alien critter I had skittering around in my brain lately. It's an mammalian-insectoid critter with several different life cycles. They often stow away on alien spacecrafts like rats on human ships, and when one such alien spacecraft crash-landed on earth, humanity was treated to a new (very cute yet weird) invasive species). There seems to be little limit as to what they can consume, although they have been observed to show a preference towards bugs, small rodents, fruits, and oddly, certain types of plastic. 

Their cuteness and sudden internet popularity, plus being able to consume plastics and promoted as "eco-friendly" by mothferret supporters, saved the species from being fully hunted down and wiped out (despite goverment concerns over mothferrets causing damage as an invasive species). 



(This concept of the mothferret species was created and owned by me. Do not duplicate, reproduce, or copy without express permission of said artist!)

I might! I currently just have doodles and still I'm still strengthening my concept for this species.

Amazing idea and a very interesting description. Maybe our plastic problem can actually be solved...?

That's a cool idea.
I imagine them being dusty, like moths, too. Are they?

Mmm probably! especially when getting close to a molt. And mothballs are effective repellents to keep them from eating plasticware
