Ear, Ear


These little gems were shared by Human Anatomy Education on Facebook.  The first is a great little video that would accompany a head dissection or any discussion of the ear.  I’m on the hunt for one of those video otoscopes now….

The second one is a good description of the ear and it’s parts, but what we really want to know is where did she get that t-shirt? I’ve hunted on the internet but so far haven’t had any luck. If you find it will you share it with me?
