Veterinary education often relies on cadaveric specimens, but there is increasing demand for alternatives due to limited resources and ethical considerations. To address this, we developed a 3D printed ‘explodable’ model of a dog cranium with detachable, magnetized cranial components      for teaching anatomy to students. This model was generated from a computed tomographic scan of a juvenile dog cranium for which cranial sutures were still partially open and segmented such that major cranial bones were isolated. All bones are printed at actual size and retain openings for cranial nerves and major vessels. This interactive model enhances anatomical education by supplying a hands-on tool that can be used either in the classroom setting or for independent learning and can be incorporated at the high school, college, or veterinary school level. It is currently being integrated into the first-year anatomy foundation course at Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. The model can be printed using any hobbyist or specialist 3D printer and we outline assembly instructions on how to attach magnets at prefabricated attachment points.      Using both digital and 3D printed resources, we hope to help to address current shortages of anatomical resources and      also      inspire future generations of practicing veterinarians by making anatomy more accessible and engaging.

This contribution contains the 3D models described and figured in the following publication:Skull and Inner Ear Morphometrics in Sheep and Goats: Species and Breed Differentiation with Bioarchaeological Applications (Hemelsdael et al. submitted). The models include the external surface of a complete skull and inner ear of both a sheep (Ovis aries) and a goat (Capra hircus), generated from micro-CT scans. In the associated paper, we used 3D geometric morphometric data to assess inter and intra (i.e. between breeds) discrimination based on complete skulls, skull fragments and the semi-circular canals of the inner ear.

The present 3D dataset contains 15 specimens selected from the 69 3D models analyzed in the paper “3D topography as an indicator of change in food processing ability in the conodont genus Palmatolepis elements”. 3D topographic analysis of Palmatolepis P1 conodont elements from the Late Devonian period revealed an increase in blade sharpness together with a reduction in platform size. This indicates morphofunctional adaptation to more efficient prey processing.

The democratization of 3D techniques in recent years provides exciting new opportunities for the study of complex fossils. In the present contribution, we provide a virtual reconstruction of a partial, disarticulated metriorhynchid (Metriorhynchidae, Thalattosuchia, Crocodylomorpha) skull from the Late Jurassic of northwestern Switzerland. This virtual reconstruction was used to produce high quality scientific illustrations of the whole skull for descriptive purposes. The reconstructed skull also served for the estimation of the total body length of the specimen and to propose a life reconstruction of the animal in its paleoenvironment. In an effort for transparency, we review the sources that were consulted for the life reconstruction and explain the choices that we had to make.

In this contribution a third new species of the rare genus Burmesescorpiops Lourenço, 2016 is described. The discovery of this new element belonging to the family Palaeoeuscorpiidae Lourenço, 2003 and to the subfamily Archaeoscorpiopinae Lourenço, 2015 brings further elements to support the validity of the genus Burmesescorpiops. This generic group remains however, poorly speciose. This is the latest discovery of Burmesescorpiops wunpawng, the name is derived from the Kachin Hilltribe peoples who are indigenous to the area. The data provided here is a 3D surface.

The present 3D dataset contains 3D models of the endocranial cast of the raoellid Khirtharia inflata retrieved from the middle Eocene of the Upper Subathu Formation in the Kalakot area (India). Raoellidae are closely related to stem cetaceans and bring crucial information to understand the earliest phase of land to water transition in Cetacea.

We provide a 3D reconstruction of the skull of Latimeria chalumnae that can be easily accessed and visualized for a better understanding of its cranial anatomy. Different skeletal elements are saved as separate PLY files that can be combined to visualize the entire skull or isolated to virtually dissect the skull. We included some guidelines for a fast and easy visualization of the 3D skull.

(2025). A human skeleton from Última Esperanza, South-West Patagonia, Chile: Osteobiography, morphometric, and genetic analysis. The models include the skull, femur, and the segmented left and right inner ears of a late Holocene human skeleton from southern Patagonia. In the associated paper, we present the radiocarbon dating, an osteobiography profile evaluating some aspects of the life history of this individual, as well as genetic and morphometric analysis assessing biological relatedness to other individuals and populations.

This contribution contains 3D models of mandibles of Cypriot mice (Mus cypriacus) and house mice (Mus musculus domesticus) from the island of Cyprus. The niche partitioning of the two species was investigated using isotopic ecology, geometric morphometrics and biomechanics. Both species displayed generalist feeding behavior, modulated by fine-tuned adaptation to their feeding habits. The house mouse mandible, with a relatively large masseter area and an optimization for incisor biting, appears as an all-rounder tool for foraging on diverse non-natural items.
These models are analyzed in the following publication: Renaud et al 2024, “Trophic differentiation between the endemic Cypriot mouse and the house mouse: a study coupling stable isotopes and morphometrics”, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10914-024-09740-5

This project presents the osteological connexions of the petrosal bone of the extant Hippopotamidae Hippopotamus amphibius and Choeropsis liberiensis by a virtual osteological dissection of the ear region. The petrosal, the bulla, the sinuses and the major morphological features surrounding the petrosal bone are labelled, both in situ and in an exploded model presenting disassembly views. The directional underwater hearing mode of Hippopotamidae is discussed based on the new observations.
