3D Dino Models

Who says you can't touch anything at the Museum?

The Arius3D Imaging Centre at the Canadian Museum of Nature creates three-dimensional models of its specimens, and we invite you to play with some.

The three following animations show a Vagaceratops irvinensis, particularly bones in one foot. This dinosaur was identified in 2001 by a research associate at museum. Read the whole dino story of this one of Our Amazing Treasures.
