Zoology: Bones

Pelvis from Orangutan Skeleton, SC-002. Of the great apes, the orangutan is the most flexible, with wrist, hip and shoulder joints allowing the greatest range of movement. Its legs are 30 percent shorter than its arms, which can span 7 1/2 feet. The only truly arboreal ape, it moves by swinging trees until they are close enough to each other to grab with its hands or hand-like feet. For comparative study, Bone Clones, Inc. produces an exceptional selection of Bone Clones® pelvis assemblies from all of the skeletons we produce. Additional primate skeletal parts are available,
