Critters are not plant, nor mineral, and loosely defined as an animal that has mobility, and usually looks at ya with thought, presence, intelligence, contempt, and at times with an attitude. Some will put you in your place, make you feel small, put fear into your belly, make you laugh, make you think, and will at times make you question the scientific state of the known and unknown. Stay tuned for my photo of Bigfoot when I meet him with a camera in hand, for example.
