Within the collection, we' ve got very small specimens such as mites. What we can see here is a follicle mite. They actually live in a hair follicle in people' s faces around their nose and in their eyelashes. What I find most interesting about them is the fact that they' ve so highly evolved to their microhabitat, so you can see that their sheathlike body actually sits into the hair follicle, and their legs are over the top holding them in. They suck out the juices of the cells beneath. Now, if you' re scared of heights, you can stand on the ground, but if you don' t like creepycrawlies, life is gonna be a bit harder. It' s reckoned that for everyone of us on the planet, there are oneandahalf billion of them. That accounts for ten quintillion individuals. Now I didn' t make that number up, it looks like this. |
