3.6" Oreodont (Leptauchenia) Skull On Rotating Stand

This is a really stunning display piece featuring a complete Oreodont (Leptauchenia decora) skull. The skull, which measures just over 3 1/2" in length, was mounted on a base so it can freely rotate 360 degrees. The skull can be easily removed from the base to display it in another orientation on a display stand.

There has been no restoration work done to the skull, and it's been minimally prepared to leave most of it in a natural state as found.

Oreodonts (the common name for Leptauchenia) are extinct mammals most closely related to camels and pigs, though they have no close relatives living today. They were herbivorous animals with short faces and fang-like canine teeth. About the size of a sheep, they roamed the plains of North America in huge numbers during the Oligocene period.
