Kakuru



A couple of weeks ago I asked the list for any new thoughts on _Kakuru_, because I had to do a restoration. Here it is (based almost entirely on _Avimimus_):

Any comments are welcome. (Although any inaccuracies are due to the fact that this is _Kakuru_, not _Avimimus_. :-))

Basing a restoration on one bone reminds me of a Monty Python skit: "from this single part" (clearly a human big-toe) "scientists have been able to reconstruct the entire animal" pans to a shot of an elephant-like animal with the toe as a nose.

Hope this painting is a little more accurate! :-)
