  1. "Perhaps even more fruitful for science was the partnership of biologist Christian Heinrich Pander and artist Eduard d’Alton. Although Pander is often credited with the discovery of the three germ layers of the early vertebrate embryo — the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm — it was his artist, d’Alton, who first visualized and meticulously drew these as-yet-unnamed structures."

    No cute bunnies or lambs in my files, I'm afraid. But I do have a *lot* of queer chickens. 🥚🏳️‍🌈🐤 :transgender: 🐔
