CollectA Sciurumimus
CollectA Model 88811
Product Dimensions: 13.3 x 4.8 cm
Age: 3 years and up
A newfound squirrel-tailed specimen is the most primitive meat-eating dinosaur with feathers, according to a new study. The late-Jurassic discovery, study authors say, challenges the image of dinosaurs as overgrown lizards.
Unearthed recently from a Bavarian limestone quarry, the exquisitely preserved 150 million year old fossil has been dubbed Sciurumimus albersdoerferi - "Scirius" being the scientific name for tree squirrels.
Sciurumimus was likely a young megalosaur, a group of large, two-legged meat-eating dinosaurs. The hatchling had a large skull, short hind limbs, and long, hairlike plumage on its midsection, back, and tail.
Hand painted and highly detailed.
Made of durable vinyl.
Manufactured from a high quality, non-toxic PVC that passes the quality standards for the Australian/NZ toy industry as well as that of USA and Europe.
