Most of the animals depicted there are "dangerous:" either predators or biting things (scorpian, snake, vulture). A few birds. The ones we liked particularly seem to be death or spirit images with very prominent rib cages and heads kind of like skulls; skeletal. Weird.
It was nice that the author mentioned the Balikli Gol Snowman. World's oldest known freestanding statue.
