Check Out Those Muscles
Summary
After many long and tedious days of skinning of the shark, we got back to labeling the shark. Today, we labeled the numerous muscles throughout the body of the shark. Who knew that there were so many numerous names for different muscles? I thought they were all just called muscles! But no, they have names such as adductor mandible and depresser of fin.
