The White-nosed Coati (Nasua narica, also known as the coatimundi) is among nature's most adorable creatures, and that's not just our opinion: that's scientific fact. While this vintage illustration of its skeletal anatomy is also fascinating, the best thing about it is of course the included shadow of the real animal's silhouette, which shows the coati's amazing, long, boop-able nose.

This incredible illustrative etching is by artist Edouard d'Alton, and comes from the 1821 osteological masterpiece Die vergleichende Osteologie. Is that the best collection of scientific illustrations ever published? In our opinion, it's got to be right up there. We're thinking about starting an Edouard d'Alton fan club even though he's been dead for almost 200 years. Don't judge us.

This is the perfect garment for all sorts of nerds: zoology nerds, osteology nerds, anatomy nerds, vintage illustrative etching nerds, you name it! (We're all of those kinds of nerd at once.)

This heavyweight zip-up hoodie is made with a very fancy low-pill, high-density cotton-poly fleece, for outstanding warmth and comfort. The cuffs and waistband are a stretchy spandex-blend and it's possible that ancient incantations were spoken over them during manufacturing, but we truly can't say for sure. It has split-pouch pockets, which is handy for when you need to stuff two deadly snakes into your pockets but they don't get along, and a covered zipper for keeping out the chill, obviously. The hood is jersey-lined and offers great sun protection, not that any of you are vampires, haha, that would be super silly, but also if you have bat minions they could probably hang inside your hoodie like a little cave.
