This is scaled to the largest known specimen of Deinonychus, MCZ 4371. It is not quite as large as a Jurassic Park raptor (partially thanks to proportion differences), but I have no doubt this thing could kill someone.

Quick reconstruction of the new dromaeosaurid Dineobellator notohesperus. I wouldn't be suprised if this ends up being a species of Acheroraptor (if not just a specimen of the type species).

Nothing in particular - I’m doing C&S dissections on wrasses (looking at osteology). The seahorse was a piggy back specimen from another department. I don’t work on those, just helping them out with it. Not entirely sure what they’re looking for with those.
