Velociraptor as 3D model
Raptor from the family Dromaeosauridae
One of the oldest predatory dinosaurs within the Dromaeosauridae is the North American Utahraptor from the lower Cretaceous period about 125 million years ago. The best known raptor, however, is the Velociraptor from the Upper Cretaceous period (about 80 million years ago).
The so-called raptors were small, agile predators living in packs, which were characterized by the typical sickle claw on the hind legs.
As various fossil finds indicate, the body of the raptors was provided with feather-like structures without the animals themselves being able to fly.
As early as the 1970s, researchers recognized clear similarities between the bone structure of dromaeosaurids and birds, and in later work concluded that these two groups were closely related - a conjecture that has since been confirmed by many studies. However, the exact relationship between dromaeosaurids and birds is still the subject of much debate.
Please note that this kit is not a children's toy and can only be "played on" to a limited extent.
Please keep the items away from small children under 6 years of age. It contains small parts that can break off and be swallowed. We therefore declare the model as a puzzle or decoration.
Item Description:
Material: 4mm wood
Dimensions approx. ca. in cm: 60 x 24 x 27,5 (L x W x H)
Weight approx: 0,3 kg
Content: 1 x lasered kit / Puzzle
Supplied as a lasered kit. This must be assambled by yourself.
No tools needed. The parts must be glued.
The kit is made of wood and has been lasered. This will cause the edges to look burnt and possibly leave traces of soot and smoke on the wood. These can be easily removed with fine sandpaper.
All components are laser cut so that there is a "beautiful" front and a marked, production-related "bad" back. Make sure that the good side always points to the visible side.
These soot and smoke marks as well as the fact that wood is a natural product, which is dimensionally influenced by basic physical laws such as temperature and humidity, there are certain limitations in the nature of the products, which must be consciously accepted.
We offer the most careful choice of material and the most modern production methods, nevertheless one has to accept with wood the peculiarities and unimpeachable characteristics, which are to be observed again and again in the practice - therefore these can not be claimed by the buyer as a material defect.
