Thanks to students from the Geologists’ Scientific Club, the Institute of Geology at Adam Mickiewicz University has been enriched with an unusual exhibit: it is a reconstructed hind limb of a tarbosaur, a close cousin of a tyrannosaur.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The exhibit is the result of the work of many years of the Institute’s students, who reconstructed the exhibit under the watchful eye of Professor Edward Chwieduk. The origins of the ‘Paw’ project date back to 2012, when the first attempts at modelling began. The model was completed on 7 January 2023 and was officially unveiled on 29 March.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tarbosaurus bataar was a carnivorous dinosaur that lived in what is now the Gobi Desert in Asia at the end of the Late Cretaceous. It weighed 5 tonnes and was 6 metres tall. A model of the hind limb of a Cretaceous-period carnivore was made at a scale of 1:1. The design and 3D model of the paw was based on a description in National Geographic.<\/span><\/p>\n
