This area of
the museum examines the anatomy of the thylacine's skull and skeleton.
The first three subsections present detailed information on the morphology
of the skull, dentition, and post-cranial skeleton.
In "Anatomical Diagrams of the Skull",
the various parts of the skull are depicted through photographic diagrams.
"A Comparison of the Thylacine and Wolf
Skull", demonstrates the anatomical differences
between the skulls of the thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus) and
Grey wolf (Canis lupus).
"A Comparison of the Thylacine and Wolf
Dentition" focuses specifically on the differences in dental structure
between these two species.
"Rotating View of the Skull" displays
a 360° rotation of a thylacine skull.
In the "Magnified Views" subsection,
you can interactively magnify a set of high resolution images of the thylacine
skull and skeleton. |
