According to legend, the island Zorama was once part of the Lost City of Atlantis, before a giant wave came and carried the island away on the ocean current. Zorama floated aimlessly, undetected by the world’s explorers for centuries until it was finally discovered in 1928 by a cargo ship bound for the United States. The ship, filled with animals destined for the zoo, ran aground and released all of its captive critters into the wild of the uninhabited island.



Critteroos are reclusive creatures found on the island of Zorama. Photographed by the famous wildlife photographer Tyler Baxter Murphy, this collection of pictures features Critteroos from the island's north side.



More of Murphy's work is compiled in Critteroos: Mix. Match. Print., an iPad application developed by CMCD Visual Symbols Production — now available in Apple's iTune Store.
