Description
Dugong male skull replica measures 11.8 x 6.5 x 6.0 inches. The Dugong dugon skull is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of a California Academy of Sciences specimen. 2-part skull (separate cranium and mandible). 1:1 scale. Made in USA.
The dugong is a gentle marine mammal native to the warm coastal waters of the Indo-West-Pacific. Their geographic range spans the shallow costal habitats of some 40 countries and territories. Today, the northern waters of Australia serve as the primary stronghold for the unique species.
Dougongs graze shallow coastal waters, rip marine plants up by the roots, vacuum up massive fields of underwater seagrass, and occasionally swallow small crabs and worms inside the ocean floor to fuel their huge bodies each day.
