“When Alexander was in India, and received 25,000 new suits of armor for his army”
“The researchers chose to work with two simpler glues that would have been available everywhere: a glue made from the skins of rabbits”
My mind boggles at how many rabbits(if they used rabbit glue) were required for the amount of glue 25,000 suits of armor would need.
Interesting article, thanks.
It’s a good thing they breed like, well, ahhh rabbits.
I bet most animals can be made into glue. Ever heard of “glue factory” ?
Easy to make version of kevlar, neat.
Thumper died so that Alexander could thump the Persians?
That does it--Alexander was a bad man.
Rabbits pulled out of the herd for glue would get replaced really fast.....
