They move with the slow inexorable nature of death itself, many have tear like markings, and are so uncaring of the world around them they sometimes plunge to their deaths because they mistake their own limbs for branches.
They have lived rent free in my mind since the early 90s
I caught one during a week long 6th grade camping field trip
We did a stream study and everyone was excited to catch as many water bugs as possible
I had a LOT
Then found a hellgrammite who was given a smorgasbord 🤣
Can't remember where it was but the MD MoCo school system would know
I'm curious what the property is used for outside the school trips & if you could do a stream study there
North end of capital caressant trail had good spots too
I was always finding salamanders
Bethesda had lots of dobsonfly
Ah, I didn’t realize it was a ranking system for a win. I figured you were assembling a high animal squad. There’s some decidedly goth fungus, too. Gotta have wide representation.
Right?
I’ve got a decidedly goth kid. Okay, they’re 18, and goth for years but lately broadened to include more punk/hardcore (bc of musical tastes), also 70s & 80s retro, as long as it’s black, red, or plaid. Their cat is black. Halloween is a weeklong event for them. I rather like the squad idea.
My first thought was owls, although I might be biased because they are my favorite. Specifically the Great Horned, Tawny, and Barn owls would be goth I think.

This is hilarious - I was hoping for one animal but now have an entire unnerving dance club
Besides moths are goth AF!
I once saw a little sloth that had fallen out of a tree, but I didn't ask it about its taste in music
They come out at night, have dark eye makeup, usually found under bridges
Tons of epicly beautiful spiders too
It also depends on your definition of goth...
A few animals would fit pixie goth very well and some of the other types

It’s also called the ossifrage.

It's the inspiration for the Pokemon Scarlet/Violet Clodsire variant
