Have you ever seen a pregnant bat skeleton?? This incredible articulation of mother and fetus was just completed for the Prehistoria Natural History Centre (#PNHC) by Toby (@tobia5_b0ch), our in-house articulator!
Bizarrely enough, bat fetuses typically develop horizontal (transverse) in their wombs, unlike our typically vertical development.
No, that’s not rogue taxidermy–that’s an actual stillborn two-headed fawn! It’s the only one known to be carried to full term; the rest were miscarried early. More details here.
