“If we can teach people about wildlife, they will be touched. Share my wildlife with me. Because humans want to save things that they love.”

The rhino and lion are a couple of the other creatures taught by the Balloon Brothers for their Geo Domes tutorials. An honest assessment would be that the form is versatile but limited by available balloons. Grey/Mocha/Beige would really open up some greater possibilities.
One thing that I'm not a big fan of, and perhaps it's my internal-origami purist, is using glue dots. They work great as a convenience, but create their own problems. Something attached in a more traditional way has the ability for some fine-tuned motion around the connection point, something stuck with a glue dot has to be set up perfectly from the start or you have a slow ... risky ... repair.
I had misgivings about the angle of the ears on the purple rhino and didn't want to risk it.
