Monsters from the land of Merka

Merkin's My Favourite animal.

The Merkin's native country is Merka which is located in north western europe. I stumbled upon a Merkin while serving a full time mission for The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints, in the fine city of Besancon. I was enthralled by the capacity that a merkin has to shapeshift, it's primary defensive mechanism. The artists depiction of a merkin is quite accurate as the beast is completely covered with hair and after it shapeshifts it remains completely covered in hair. Other interesting facts about Merkins are that it only needs to consume Merkalite, a liquid substance that we would compare to a milkshake, in order to survive.
The average life expectancy of a Merkin is 30 yrs, after which the merkin goes to a place called Merktopia, the paradise for merkins if you will. No merkin has ever been murdered as they are invincible to all human and animal attacks, but rather can choose to die at a younger age.
