HOw DoesThe(Inside)Pregnant Womb of a Mammal or a Bird’s Egg Looks Like?


Captured using revolutionary four-dimensional imaging technology and anatomically accurate models, scientists have managed to shed light on the world of mammals inside the womb.
As diverse a bunch as they are - elephant, dog, dolphin and penguin are all shown united by their similar stages of development.

Scientists captured the images for a National Geographic Documentary called 'Animals in the Womb'. 
The images were also used on a Channel 4 documentary 'Animals in the Womb' which aired in 2009. 

The documentary explores the marked similarities between very different animals.
