I like to lighten up lectures with jokes, especially if they underscore knowledge. Yet for monotremes, which produce milk like other mammals but lay eggs, I had yet to find a joke. Thanks to Alan Dixson, I now have one, which my gifted daughter Alex cartoonized: #monotreme#MILK
Don’t forget to visit our labs and chat to our experts about human evolution, apes and monkeys, and human skeletons! @bioanth_pal @KBalolia and Dr Anja Deppe! @ANUcass@ourANU#anuopenday
