Earlier today, I noticed that Sylvain Deville had taken to Twitter to point out an unusual canine co-author on a scientific paper:
This, of course, reminded me of the paper published by Andre Geim (in his pre-Nobel days) and H. A. M. S. ter Tisha. Spot anything odd about that last author? Well, it’s a hamster. Called Tisha.
Steph Kerr then followed up on Twitter with this:
So, that’s a dog, a hamster and a cat. Anybody know of any other non-human co-authors on scientific papers?!
UPDATE: Here’s Sylvain’s post on the same topic.

And I was feeling proud of co-authoring a JACS paper, *sigh* I better go back to run on my wheel.
