| Great Apes - The Great Apes category includes the Gorilla, Chimpanzee, Bonobo, and Orangutan. We also include here the Lesser Apes, the Siamang and Gibbon. We are proud to produce all great ape skulls and skeletons, many through the cooperation of the Philadelphia Zoo. We offer our full skeletons in articulated or disarticulated versions. In addition, the Gorilla and Chimpanzee skeletons are offered assembled in the bipedal position. Of particular interest for comparative anatomy are postcranial parts, including the pelvis, femur, skeletal and life cast hands and feet (and male and female Gorilla face life casts and skulls), as well as several muscle casts. Please also note our fetal and infant Chimpanzee and Orangutan skulls (as well as a set of the fetal postcranial bones). We are pleased to add Primate Endocasts to our collection. Bone Clones® replicas offer the finest detail available in casts of natural history specimens. |
