RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research Ikimon Coloring

Ikimon means “living organisms”
in the Japanese Kansai dialect.
The bodies of living organisms are very complex,
and at the same time, very beautiful.
This is why we decided to make coloring pages featuring living organisms!
Explore the wonder of living organisms as you color the pictures!
