Model of a Monk Seal Skeleton

Aloha Good People! 
Dana sent these images to be a little bit ago and I forgot to post them... here is a MODEL of a monk seal skeleton.  Both Dana and I thought it was very cool and wanted to share with you all. If I'm not mistaken this is on Maui, and I apologize because I could not find the name of the person who actually made this. Enjoy ~donna~

    This is a real skeleton on Maui that took over a year to put together. We were on Maui on a Conference, we got the honor of meeting this really cool female seal, from the NWHI. It is the ONLY seal skeleton in the world and is in Maui for display at the Sanctuary. It will come to Oahu I forget when. When I have time I will get you the correct infor on this skeleton. Ok? Seal ya.
