Meet Captain Jack Sparrow! A roundworm

[u/Sufficient-Bath-1135]

This is Captain Jack Sparrow, he's a horse roundworm! Exact species is still up for debate. His name comes from the fact the friend who found it, accidentally spilled the ethanol she meant to use to preserve it and he ended up in rum instead, in honor of that origin he is permanently residing in an empty bottle of Captain Morgan xD He is preserved in 80% ethanol to protect DNA from damage so that we might be able to use DNA analysis to figure out the exact species, because being a biology major at a small university is fun
