General Release

You want to release an animal into the wild? That's great! Releasing an animal into the wild helps the population grow and progress, saving it from extinction. It is a difficult road, but it can be extremely rewarding.

Requirements:

To release, you must complete three out of five specific prompts through art, be it drawing or writing, as well as a mandatory vet check. Each prompt needs to be 4 fame/rolls per animal minimum and the animal must be fullbody, not including the release bonus. You may feature 4 animals per release.

Special Literature Rules:
Due to the repetitive nature of releases, the word count rules slightly differ from typical art. Instead of requiring a minimum of words being 600 per prompt per animal, it is instead 200. This is for releases only! 

----

Prompt 1: Vet Check (mandatory)
Before release, the animal must get a clean bill of health! It would be a shame to release animal just for them to pass away from illness. Even worse, a sick animal could contaminate the wild population! Have a vet check out the animal to make sure it's ready

If you have a Veterinarian Award, you are able to skip the mandatory vet check.

Prompt 2: Finding Food
Obviously if an animal is to survive in the wild, it must have a constant source of food. Teach your predator to hunt, or your herbivore which plants are edible to ensure it can feed itself upon release. 

Prompt 3: Finding Shelter
One of the other most important parts of being in the wild is finding a place to stay hidden from predators and the elements. Show your animal discovering how to make a den or find a safe place to sleep.

Prompt 4: Social Skills
If an animal is going to pass on its genes, it needs to know how to interact with others of its kind. It must meet others of its kind, preferably unrelated, so that it can learn how to deal with others in its species without being harmed!

Prompt 5: The Release
You did it! Here's the moment you've been waiting for- the release! Your animal is stepping out onto unfamiliar soils and is ready to embark on the journey of the rest of its life. Good luck!
