The Majestic Owlbear (briefly) Returns! And we made ENAMEL PINS!
You guys, I loved the Owlbear Conservation Society design I did with Stands earlier this year, so we decided to offer it again, for a super-limited time … AND OH MY GOD WE MADE ENAMEL PINS!
Check it out:
I embedded a link to buy your own shirt or pin in this image, because I go the extra mile for you.I am so freaking psyched about these pins. I’ve been wanting to get into the pin game (is that a thing?) for a long time, being an avid pin collector, myself, so this makes me super happy.
In fact, I am so excited about these pins, I’m going to give away FIVE of them to random readers who leave a comment on this post, telling me why you support Owlbear conservation. Winners will be chosen at random in a few days.
(Did I just use gratuitous bolding? You know I did.)
Allow me to close with some ad copy:
The majestically grumpy Owlbear is back for one week only! Perfect time to get a tee or hoodie for the holidays. And this time around, we’ve added some sweet new pins, too. Check them out here: http://bit.ly/Owlbear_WWh

Owlbears are over-hunted by eager n00bs hoping to gain strength for later quests. There's no respect for their strength, grace, or general bad-assitude. And once we lose a creature, it's gone forever and we're the worse for it.

I support the plight of the Owlbears because without them who would tell us "well actually" on Tabletop episodes? And we need that right? Right?!
The Owlbear population is dwindling due to hobgoblins capturing and training them as war beasts, giants have them as pets, and peoples of distant frontier settlement racing them for sport.A full grown specimen will often feed on many things in the area keeping invasive populations in check. Once you kill it, the Owlbear isn't there to keep the population of those things down. Suddenly there is going to be a massive overpopulation, possibly causing more problems than the Owlbear ever did. Think of all the bandits who will be able to attack passengers all willy nilly. If an Owlbear was there to eat them it would help increase trade route success.
Plus they are so darn cute. Think of the hungry Owlbears before you adventure out and bring a nice goblin snack along to keep them flourishing.
Owlbears are extraordinarily important to our world and it is essential that we ensure their continued survival. These majestic beasts help to control the populations of other lesser creatures that run rampant. Truly, owlbears provide a genuine service to our ecosystem. As an added bonus, they're excellent for scaring people to death, should the need arise. Though not commonly known for their patience, they are able to stand silently for some time, waiting to scare the bejesus out of their prey, though usually for their own entertainment. The more of these animals we fail to protect, the fewer people and animals get to experience one of their truly unique hugs--a special treat for all involved. Its prey almost doesn't mind meeting their unholy demise when being squished in such a manner. We are only hurting ourselves by not protecting the owlbear. In fact, the owlbear helps us to be lazy by controlling the rest of the population for us. Think of all the work we have to do when the owlbear isn't doing it for us. It is truly essential that we do everything in our power to preserve these beautiful animals.
I support Owlbear conservation because our world would be all the poorer for their loss. They are a symbol of perseverance and strength. They respond with extreme prejudice when endangered and yet are incredibly gentle with their fledgling. They represent both sides of the coin. I was lucky enough to see an Owlbear in the wild once. I will never forget how beautiful it was. Please save the Owlbear!
Gotta love THEM since I love all the other animals and would like to have a sanctuary for them all. In the meantime, I do what I can to support their causes, both local and international, both wild and domesticated. Only an animal ( and you, Wil) can make a day better when my "monster" is knocking at the door. Thank you.
When is the last time you saw an Owlbear in the wild? They need our protection!With the profit of selling the merchandise a breeding program should be established.
Owlbears are beautiful creatures and need our protection. Then again, we really need to protect many of the creatures on our planet and so many people think that there will always be creatures in abundance. We need to find a way to get them to listen. I was one of the uninformed people years ago. I didn’t know that the simple things like plastic bags and plastic straws could cause problems with the environment. But the sad truth is that those simple, everyday things are a part of the problem. We need to find a way to make those people who haven’t been listening, or don’t want to think that they are part of the problem, to face up to it. On a silly note.... as long as the owlbear is a out door creature, my little yellow lovebird should be safe.
I believe in the owlbear. Friends mock me, but I tell them the owlbear is out there and must be protected for future generations to enjoy should they ever see one.
Scientists agree to assume that in the wild they do not show aggressive behavior, as there has never been found ANY evidence of an Owlbear attack! Neither do they pose a threat towards inhabited areas. Here in Norway we have heated debates about the wolf because it kills livestock, but Owlbears? Never!
HOWEVER, because the Owlbear is a very cautious and wary creature and we are not entirely sure where to find them, there is only so much one can do to support their wellbeing. But what we can do right now is to support the animals that surround us every day, such as your neighborhoods stray dog, a rabbit in a laboratory or an elephant being killed for their tusks. This is why the work of the Owlbear Conservation Society (+the humane society and SPCA) is so important.
Thank you for your attention
