This cartoon is a good example of how technology has changed. When I first drew this, smartphones were just beginning to replace standalone GPS units. Who would have thought that today, there is such a thing as GPS sheep tracking?
Today, we can track anything, including livestock. Radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology is small enough, we can keep track of and identify an entire flock without leaving the house.
Cartoon of a dad and daughter. They are staring at a bird with very long legs. The dad says, “That is the strangest hybrid I’ve ever seen.”
I thought this cartoon would go great with Illustration Friday’s theme. This week’s word is “afterwards.” When I originally though of this idea, I thought of genetically modified animals. I wondered what would happen when the critters would take strange forms afterwards. They would make strange hybrids indeed.
