    Reminds me of the adult swim promo ... I believe it was Flying Shark vs. Flying Alligator, though it may have been sock puppets and not fancy gloves per se.

    First thought: 'Predator' mittens. Could 'Alien' mitts be far behind?

    I thought the gazelle one was a badger at first, and I was wondering, "Where on earth do lions and badgers live in the same place?"

    ...now that I said that, I'm sure someone will pop in to tell me that there is somewhere that lions and badgers co-exist. Although if they do, I'm not sure the lion would necessarily be the prey -- badgers have been known to fight off BEARS, y'all.

    These are amusingly inspired. An unfortunate side effect is that I'm now singing "Animal mittens are on their way" in my head to the tune of Oliver's Army.

    I think this would be more adorable if we got two pairs and I gave the whales to my boyfriend, keep the fish for myself and when we held hands the wales could eat the fish.... I'm such a nerd.

    Rather than admire these properly, I started contemplating getting my girlfriend to knit an alternative - Ouroboros mittens - that way they'd be predator and prey and no-one could steal them as they'd be joined by thread all the way up my arms!

    ...I need help.

    I think that, as a grown man, if I was conducting hand puppet plays at the bus stop I might be given a wide berth and/or beaten up and have my mittens stolen.

    I have to admit, I clicked on this after briefly glancing at the title without reading the description. I expected to see Burton dressed up as his various creations. This is cool too though,
