How long does something need to stay still for a CT scan and can you send water through, just thinking about aquatic animals if you could just send the tank through.
Looking at my axolotl who can happily sit there not moving for hours in the hope of ambushing prey, staying still should be easy enough.
On OkCupid, I once briefly courted a woman with the username "RazeTheAxolotl." One of my opening questions was whether she meant "raise" or "raze." She meant "raise."
I don't think asking that helped with my chances. We didn't end up going on any dates.
that goose is gonna kill some mfs when it wakes up
Interesting.
Did you take these pictures, or could you mention their source? I want to make sure the author(s) get credit.
A... giraffe? Are they alive?
Yeah, they’re usually found in the grasslands of Africa and a few other places in the world in addition to zoos and such.
Amazing post
Hats off to all these people keeping everything under control and helping these creatures. I cannot imagine how pissed off that lion or tiger would be if they woke up in the middle of a giant metal donut that makes tons of noise. I mean that takes a lot of courage. Most I will volunteer for is the bird, the fluffy burrito, and maybe the hedgehog. Pretty much anything that won't eat me.
Love how the bird is still smiling
Thanks so much for sharing!
OMG
Whats the type of bear on 3rd picture?
I think it might be a sloth bear: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloth_bear
I have a feeling, most of those are MRT and not CT
MRT machines are much larger than the devices shown here.
The only thing animals should be forced to do!
That CT scanner is like a D&D magic item that lets you conjure up to 2 hit-dice worth of medicated animals....
What do you mean against their will? Did you ask them politely?
Poor Sonic…
This made me smile! I love it 😀
Would love an explanatory text writeup to go along with these. How else do vets diagnose big sick animals?
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
