SciFi and Fantasy Art Crocotta by Nils-Erik Lindström


	This is an ilustration of some rather unpleasant doglike animals, Crocottas, who live near battlefields and feed off the fallen soldiers.

2 Jan 2005	Rachel A. Pendley	Loading... You don't see many works on Crocottas here on Elfwood. This piece is nice, I like it. Crocottas have always been my favorite mythical beast and I've never found any works on them. Nicely done, Mate.
20 Jan 2005	Melissa	Loading... Sweat... I like it.
9 May 2005	SummonerX <db7219@dra...com>	Loading... WOW a rare site! A crocotta and its actually EATING something..I love it! Like others have said you don't see many of those little buggers. As a mythic side note; Crocottas eat both men and fellow dogs, they can immatate human voices to a degree, and their eyes,if cut out of the beast as it is slain, will turn into slender jewls that once placed under the tongue can give someone the gift of Sight.
12 Aug 2005	Kim	Loading... This reminds me of lord of the rings:The two towers, when the hyenea rides abushed the people. A little gory, but good job.
7 Jan 2006	Sverige töz	Loading... I found an other swede...well yah..it's an awesome picture!
6 May 2006	I.hate.math.class.	Loading... to "spider", duh they look like hyenas. they're probably just an exaggeration of it found in ethiopia. also, i leaned that they have extremely powerful jaws. >and i know that 'cause of this: Documented by Pliny, this offspring of a wolf and dog can be found in Ethiopia. It is said that this creature can break anything with its teeth and can also eat anything. It may be just an exaggeration of a hyena which has very powerful jaws. (thank you, .infusino. from quizilla.)<
21 Jan 2007	Anonymous	Loading... Leucrotta is what I would've called 'em... but very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very good work.
28 Jan 2007	Hex	Loading... Wow! They look like hyenas. Do they laugh?
23 Feb 2007	MinisterMaze	Loading... Hey! nice Crocotta...... how do you say that? Well anyway, I want one for X-Mas
11 Mar 2009	Infobuddy ^_^	Loading... To Anonymous: Leucrotta is a badger headed lion bodied gazelle legged creature that has a line of bone for teeth and a backbone so stiff it has to turn around to look behind it.... I personally like Crocottas better (info from Wikipedia/Monsterpedia!!!!)
