Photo of Chinese street pharmacy: falcons, seahorses, and flattened lizards
Mark Frauenfelder
It’s nice to know that, in China, you will never find yourself short of dead falcons, seahorses, and flattened lizards, if this detail from a Flickr photo is any indication of what’s available from Xinjiang street vendors. Link(Thanks, Healthbolt!)
If you liked my photo of the Xinjiang medicine man’s stand you linked on boing boing today, you might also also dig this one and this one. I have a terrible image somewhere (not online) of a chinese medine man in Xining with a stand full of bear and tiger feet.
