The Anatomy of a Mermaid and Other Cryptids

mermaid-anatomy

I’ve always sort of wondered how mermaid anatomy works. I figured it would be similar to human biology, just because of the resemblance of our upper bodies, but it’s nice to finally know the specifics, such as the location of the mermaid’s weird-lookin’ vag.

I’m confident that this chart was designed by some of the finest marine biologists alive today. I found the fetal diagram particularly interesting. Hit the jump for charts of other mythical creatures, including the cyclops Curupira.

Actually, the creature “Curupira” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curupira) is not a Cyclops, but something from brazillians folklore
