MONKEYS!!!!! This was an art project I had to do. We had to pick a creature and draw seven variations of that creature. I chose monkeys (although baboons and lemurs aren’t technically monkeys). Made with colored pencil.
(Via Science Tattoo Emporium, a splendid gallery of geeky/science-related tattoos.)
“These are two species of primates that I had tattooed on my forearms. One is a tamarin monkey in honor of Paul Garber (who studies tamarin monkeys), the professor who started me off on the path to becoming a biological anthropologist. The other is a sifaka, my current study species.”
