me: umm actually that’s Frankenstein’s Monster friend: oh my bad *puts down energy drink* Frankenstein: don’t sweat it bro

"i'm a creep" "i'm a weirdo" ok??? i was working in the lab late one night when my eyes beheld an eerie slight for my monster from his slab began to rise and suddenly to my surprise (he did the mash) he did the monster mash (the monster mash) it was a graveyard smash

Dang evolution, you crazy. This is the skull of a filefish, Anacanthus barbatus. Normally, filefishes don't look this crazy, but this species decided to go all the way. #LikeABoss #CTscan

Fish Heads are the best! Here is another fish skull model, this one showing the dynamic levers and linkage systems in the feeding mechanisms of wrasses. #FourBarLinkage #Biomechanics #WrasseWednesday

Smol catfish, serious spines🐱🐟

While #echinochrome staining of bone is best known in sea otters that feed on sea urchins, it is also known in fishes that have a similar diet. Here are a few examples of fishes with purple bones (e.g., Wolffish, Moray Eel & Parrotfish). #TheMoreYouKNow. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echinochr…

The bigger the fish the smaller the teeth?😂 Giant Grouper teeth in the Royal Ontario Museum comparative osteology collection!! They replace their teeth continuously from below making a nightmare carpet for a generalist predator

Y’all fish are water dragons.

Fun fact, the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) has enough bones in its body to make up an entire alligator skeleton.

Another day, another beaks! #pufferfish #TeamFish
