I need to find some examples of Bilateral asymmetry (different left and right sides) in vertebrates, and I am completely stuck. All I can think of are those crabs with one really big claw, but they aren't vertebrates? Can anyone think of any?

(Sorry about asking a blatantly obvious homework question, but google isn't being any help to me)
