Why 11 Million Embalmed Specimens Are Stored In The Field Museum's Basement
1. The Field Museum in Chicago houses over 11 million fluid specimens, ranging from bonnethead sharks to Komodo dragons, all stored in its basement. Josh notes that there are 883 frogs among these specimens. The question arises: why retain such a vast collection, and why maintain them in a wet state? This preservation method can be likened to a library, where wet specimens retain their shape and, in certain instances, even their DNA. This approach allows researchers to maintain a semblance of a living zoo within their laboratories. Each jar serves as a volume from which researchers can extract knowledge, occasionally leading to the identification of entirely new species right from the shelves. However, it is not as simple as placing a Komodo dragon directly into an alcohol tank. The Field Museum must carefully acquire and prepare these specimens to ensure their preservation for future generations. Specimens are obtained through two primary methods: donations or through field research, where researchers may strategically euthanize specimens, such as the common water snake. It is important to note that these snakes can be quite aggressive if captured. Sara's research utilizes both new and historical specimens to analyze how habitat changes have impacted various species over time. Upon acquiring a new specimen, her initial step is to extract its DNA. This procedure is relatively recent, as the use of DNA in this manner only became prevalent in the 1990s. While it is feasible to obtain DNA, it is significantly easier to collect tissue samples from fresh specimens than from preserved ones.

An artful life
What is an artful life? Art is everything, it is the way we walk, talk, move, cook, laugh and smile. It can be in every moment. How you put together the food that you nourish your body with. Do you take time to make your food beautiful and present it in a way that makes you happy? Or do you burn it by accident because you’re not fully present or you’re thinking or working on something at the same time? Being present is the most important thing with art. You have to be in the now. If your mind is wandering and wondering “what else could I be doing right now” or thinking, thinking, thinking about a whole list of things you need to get done- washing, shopping, cooking for the week- then you’ll never be able to create art that is a representation of your soul on fire.

What About My Destiny?
His childhood passed as he walked on tiptoes, to avoid provoking his father's anger and to avoid being noticed by his bullying friends, and out of fear of awakening the ghosts of the dark. He was very delicate and felt isolated among all the harsh people surrounding him, as if he were a banner of peace fluttering among the ruins of a battlefield littered with blood and ashes. When he wanted to sleep at nine o'clock, he would dig his small fingers into his hair and move it around to fall asleep. Unable to, he would clear his throat of remnants of tears and sobs to sing himself a lullaby to help him sleep, and he would not finish this cleansing until dawn. His singing was accompanied by sighs and stuttering. He did not interact much with people, so he was not good at speaking and stuttered a lot. He loved being with trees and birds, and a small colt, which he considered his only friend, would sneak up to him whenever his mother was away from him, as the colt frightened him with its size and the noise of its neighing. Then, after several nights, he was shocked to find that the colt had grown to the size of his mother, which he had always feared. This disappointment almost tore his heart apart.
