Alligator - subadult skull3D Model
The head skeleton of a subadult Alligator mississippiensis (OUVC 11415). It was provided to us for study by the Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge (Louisiana Dept. of Wildlife & Fisheries). We scanned the head region on the OUµCT scanner in 2017 at a resolution of 49.3 µm (0.0493 mm). The skull, mandible, brain endocast, inner ear labyrinth, adn tympanic sinuses were segmented in Avizo by Seishiro Tada of the University of Tokyo as part of an internship at WitmerLab. He then assembled these materials in Maya for upload here. For more 3D content on this and other alligators, check out the Visible Interactive Alligator site: http://bit.ly/2ttvbKa . There you’ll find 3D PDFs for download that provide comparable content to what’s here, but allowing the user more control. This model can be downloaded here as an FBX. The original scan data can be downloaded on MorphoSource (http://bit.ly/2SYlUTP).
