RBG’s latest xrays?

Looks good for 250 million years old. That tiny little bit of earth had to remain almost perfectly still for 250 million years to keep the thing in pristine condition.

I can’t even comprehend 250 million years.

I agree.
Another odd creature is a flounder.
In it’s youth, it looks like a ‘normal’ fish with eyes on
each side of its head.
But then as it grows one of the eyes moves to the same side
as the other.

Some types of flounders have a left eye that moves to the right,
and some types have a right eye that moves to the left.

There are some real odd birds as well.
I don’t think anything beats the platypus though.
