Marsupial Skull for Mammalogy
Marsupial skull replicas for mammalogy – This collection highlights the distinct skeletal traits of metatherian mammals. A smaller braincase and a unique inflected angular process on the lower jaw define these craniums. Such features separate marsupials from placental mammals like dogs or cats. Each set includes a 1:1 scale 2-part cranium and mandible. A close look at the specialized dental formulas is possible with the articulated jaw. Every model is cast from high-quality museum specimens. The process captures the delicate bone sutures and prominent sagittal crests of the original animal. Durable marsupial skull replicas work well for frequent handling in research laboratories. These models provide a clear look at the diverse adaptations of opossums, kangaroos, and carnivorous marsupials.
