I think West Nile is one of the more impressive ones though. Primarily infects birds of course, but also mammals, reptiles, even amphibians

"Squirrels can get west nile" is a sentence that lives in my head forever because it was an exam question that I got wrong because I did not think it would be on a test.

Mine is the marginal cutaneous pouch of ears. I've had like, a dozen animals with injuries too it over the years and missing that on an anatomy exam means I write VERY SPECIFICALLY where the laceration is in my record lol.

Mine is the lateral head of the gastrocnemius. Spent probably way too long agonizing over it in my first anatomy exam. Had written as a note to myself “something deep to the gastrocnemius???” and was so mad to find out if I had just put the damn muscle name they would have given me partial credit.

Mine is the pes anserinus. Knowing that one actually got me big bonus points with one of the surgeons at my rotating internship.

Have I ever needed this info since that point-and-ask question during a TPLO? Nope.

It’s that little flappy bit of skin on the lateral ear margin. I think we learned it as Henry’s Pocket but I don’t think it was an exam question for us 😂

I learned it as Henry's pocket but not even in school. I had to look it up because an owner's child asked me what it was called and therefore I was obligated to find out.

I have no recollection of ever learning what that was called, but I would like to report that I was handstripping my dog’s ears tonight and informed Henry that that was his pocket and it is definitely named after him.
