Thomas Henry Huxley, was a prominent English biologist, anatomist, and scientific educator who lived from 1825 to 1895. He was one of the most influential figures in the 19th-century scientific community and was often referred to as "Darwin's Bulldog" for his staunch support and advocacy of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection.
He rose to prominence through his work as a comparative anatomist and made significant contributions to the understanding of vertebrate anatomy and evolution. Huxley's research on fossil fishes and reptiles played a crucial role in advancing the field of paleontology.
