Description
New Guinea singing dog male skull replica measures 7.8 x 3.9 x 4.4 inches. Canis hallstromi skull is museum-quality polyurethane resin cast from a private collector specimen. 2-part skull (separate cranium and mandible). Made in USA.
The New Guinea Singing Dog is a rare wild dog from mountain forests. Specifically, it belongs to an old dingo-lineage. This specimen showcases the amazing way its head has changed to survive. Because of this, it is a top choice for study.
In mature males, the skull has a heavier build than the females. For example, it has a larger crest on top for jaw muscles. Moreover, it has thick cheekbones to help the dog eat a wild meat diet. Therefore, it is very strong.
The skull reveals precise internal morphology at the posterior of the oral cavity. These structures are believed to facilitate the species’ famous harmonic, yodel-like vocalizations, distinguishing it from all other wild canids.
