@kline That wouldnt surprise me
@freemo the cool thing about it is that the anti-bleeding response is something we have as well - retract and constrict the blood vessels. Obviously, it's a bit more developed in lizards, as an antipredation tactic than it is in humans, but humans can reduce blood loss in this way in some circumstances in otherwise rapidly fatal arterial injuries.
@kline Makes sense. Are you an expert on any of this or just general knowledge?
@freemo A little more than general knowledge but a long way from expert.
@kline fair, well if you know anything about lizard biology specifically youll be a step up from me. I know general biology but nothing related to lizard tails.
@freemo I know more about human wounding than lizard wounding, unfortunately. Reptile medic sounds like a great job.
@kline human biology I understand fairly well too, nothing too specialized about wounds other than the basics. Most of my study was in genetics and neurobiology and some microbiology
@freemo it's pretty high cost and risky for them.
