Platypus Skull Replicas

Platypus Skulls for Mammalogy

Platypus skull replicas – Our collection features the rare skeletal traits of the world’s only monotremes. The focus is on the broad, duck-like bill of the platypus. This area once held the sensory organs used for electroreception. We also feature the short-nosed echidna to show the diversity of egg-laying mammals. Each set includes a 1:1 scale 2-part cranium and mandible. Our inventory also offers a full articulated skeleton for complete anatomical study. These models show the early bone features that separate monotremes from other mammals. Every cast is molded from original CAS specimen. Made in the USA, durable platypus skull replicas work well for frequent handling in research laboratories. They provide a clear look at the strange evolution of Australian wildlife.
