Photo of Chinese street pharmacy: falcons, seahorses, and flattened lizards


Chinese Street PharmacyIt'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.

Reader comment: Raul Gutierrez (the photographer) says:

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.
