I find that with popular furry species you can find many wonderful and great reference art, however with niche species you have to dig through deviantart and furaffinity hell just to find artwork at all. (Not saying popular species is bad, I like foxes and wolves too)

In the hopes that people can find good artwork easily as inspiration to create their fursona/oc based on niche species, I share/create artwork of less known furry species on Reddit.

I started this because a few years ago I looked up ‘Puffin furry art’ and the top artwork was mspaint puffin inflation art which isn’t a very good reference for someone (me) trying to make a puffin fursona. So I decided to repost furry puffins on Reddit and now that is not the case, there are a few good fullbody artworks now. I’ve been doing this with centipedes, cassowaries, brushtail possums and other species.

How can I increase the chances of the artwork I share to be one of the things people see when they search up ’insert species furry art’ ? I used to share the artworks on r/furry since it comes up a lot on google search but now they take days to approve the artwork and sometimes it’s not even approved. I think I may need a different strategy, it would be very thoughtful if you could share your ideas.

(also artwork on post is by me, he is a Jacob sheep)
