The artwork showcases iconic Peruvian mammals. ### Featured Species and Elements **Spectacled Bear (*Tremarctos ornatus*)** The centerpiece features Peru's only bear species, an Andean endemic and national symbol of conservation, representing the Yungas and cloud forest ecosystems. **Bat (Chiroptera)** Representing the incredible diversity of Neotropical bats found in Peru's lowland and montane forests, one of the most species-rich mammalian orders in the country. **Small Rodent** Depicting the often-overlooked micromammals that constitute a significant portion of Peru's mammalian biodiversity, particularly in grassland and scrub ecoregions. **Andean Bromeliad (*Puya*)** A striking red-orange flowering plant native to high-elevation ecosystems, symbolizing the unique flora-fauna relationships in Peruvian montane habitats. ### Design Elements The hexagonal design with teal borders and light blue background creates a modern, scientific aesthetic while the vertical "PERUMAMMALS" text establishes clear package identity. The composition balances charismatic megafauna with lesser-known taxa, reflecting the package's comprehensive approach to documenting all 573+ mammal species recorded in Peru across 10 distinct ecoregions. --- *Logo design © Ismael Silva.
