Even animals need health care and, just like humans, animals under zoo care get preventative treatments to ensure a longer and more physically stable life. On October 17 and 18, the Oregon Zoo posted on Twitter some of the "rad radiography from health checks at [their] veterinary center". The "rad radiographs" were labeled as "amazing and gothy animal x-rays taken during health check-ups". Initially, the unnamed iguana got the most tweets with the undulating twists of the python the second. Many artists responded that they would appreciate these pictures being uploaded in high definition for artistic purposes to Creative Commons. Another suggested selling these types of picts as a way to generate money to support the many expensive eating needs of the zoo animals. But seriously, wouldn't these be fabulous in art?!?! I could definitely see a future in these types of "photography" entering mainstream art!
