Stunning Pallasite Meteorite slice, a rare stony iron class of meteorites that contain Olivine/Peridot within the iron matrix. Estimated to be 4 billion years old, these meteorites make up only 0.1 to 0.2% of all 50,000 meteorites found on earth. These meteorites can provide insights into the solar system’s formation.

Diaphonized frog. Diaphonizing is an amazing process, whereby you take usually a thinner, smaller specimen and make it see-through so that you can see the skeletal structure without dissecting the specimen. Usually it’s a series of chemical baths that starts with an enzyme bath that makes the muscle and soft tissue transparent, and then there are dyes that can color the calcium rich parts of the skeleton as well as the cartilage and connective tissue. You then place the Diaphonized specimen into a bottle or vial filled with glycerin to preserve it.

We just received some amazing Bird skulls from species that we’ve never had before. These are some of the species we received, all of which come from Tanzania, and as always, these are not CITES, not MBTA, not Endangered, and are declared to and cleared by USFWS for import and sale.
