5 Animal Costume Ideas for Halloween
October 2, 2017
Tiger
No two tigers have the same stripe pattern, which is another reason they're so striking. Take a tip from these cats and strut your stuff this Halloween.
Peacock
If you replicate these feathers you're sure to have the most colorful costume at the party. In the animal kingdom only male peafowl sport the signature look, but we don't discriminate.
Tapir
Want a costume sure to get noticed? Dress up like a tapir! Their prehensile nose is sure to garner attention, if you can pull it off.
Okapi
Are you a zebra? A horse? A giraffe? You'll keep the party guessing all night thanks to the wonderfully weird okapi.
Bat
It's not a Halloween party without a few staple species, like bats! We think these flying mammals get a bad rap and they're actually quite cute. Don a pair of wings and prepare to do some serious listening.
