Ever wonder what a mealworm exo looks like up close?

[endrien]

Got a "new" microscope today, first of my own mainly to be able to do fecal's on my herps but also to learn some things pertaining to biology as I plan to study veterinary medicine in a few years. Only thing I could find around was a mealworm exoskeleton from a pupa and I don't have any slides as of yet so it was difficult to focus on the whole thing because it was not fully flat. Regardless I still think it is interesting.

It's pretty cool! I would love to be a vet as well, but that won't be for a couple more years since I've just started thinking about colleges haha
