This first specimen of Compsognathus, a small carnivorous dinosaur, was found in the 1850s. It was studied by Thomas Huxley, who opined that dinosaurs and birds must be related, based on the lightweight, hollow bones of this housecat-sized dinosaur. His theory was discounted for a hundred years, but now paleontologists agree that this is the case. Go Huxley!
This specimen has the remains of a lizard meal in his stomach.
High density polyurethane foam, hand painted and ready to hang on the wall. Approximately 15"x11"x1"$190.
