Description
Acrocanthosaurus skull plaque replica measures 3.5 x 2.5 x 0.5 inches. Acrocanthosaurus plaque is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles specimen. 1:1 scale. Made in the USA.
Acrocanthosaurus was an apex predator that patrolled the swamplands of North America. This theropod is instantly recognizable for its 4.3-foot-long skull. It featured low, narrow snouts and massive weight-reducing openings.
This hunter possessed smoother jaw surfaces and distinctive bony ridges that ran from the nostrils to the thick brow over the eyes. Its mouth was armed with approximately 68 curved, serrated teeth designed to slice through flesh like surgical blades.
Analysis of its braincase indicates large olfactory bulbs for a keen sense of smell, while the inner ear anatomy shows the head naturally titlted downward.
