"Collared Peccary and Mink (Plates XXXI and XXXIII)" are two notable illustrations by John James Audubon, a French-American naturalist, ornithologist, and painter, renowned for his detailed and vivid depictions of wildlife, particularly in his seminal work, "The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America." Audubon's legacy is largely defined by his ambitious efforts to document all species of American birds and quadrupeds, which he did with a combination of scientific precision and artistic flair.

The Collared Peccary, depicted in Plate XXXI, is a medium-sized mammal of the family Tayassuidae, also known as the javelina or musk hog, native to the Americas. Audubon's illustration captures the distinct physical characteristics of the species, such as its dark grey coat with a lighter-colored "collar" around the neck, and its robust, compact body adapted for its habitat.

Plate XXXIII features the Mink, a small, semiaquatic mammal belonging to the Mustelidae family, known for its luxurious fur and agile hunting skills. Audubon's portrayal of the mink emphasizes its sleek body, dense fur, and keen eyes, which are essential for its survival in various North American environments.

Both plates are part of Audubon's broader effort to document the quadrupeds of North America, which, like his bird illustrations, aimed to provide an exhaustive record of the continent's fauna. The works are characterized by Audubon's attention to detail, anatomical accuracy, and the dynamic poses in which he often depicted the animals, suggesting their behavior and movement in the wild.

"Collared Peccary and Mink" are significant contributions to natural history illustration and continue to be appreciated for their artistic merit and scientific value. These plates, along with the rest of Audubon's quadruped series, have been instrumental in fostering public interest in wildlife and conservation, and they remain a testament to Audubon's enduring impact on the fields of art and natural science.
