Gallimimus (Gal-lee-my-mus) – An ostrich mimic dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Mongolia. Gallimimus is the biggest ornithomimid dinosaur known to science. It measured around 6 metres in length, and it had a hip height of approximately 1.9 metres. Better preserved fossils of related dinosaurs indicate that Gallimimus was probably feathered. Scientists have noted the discovery of three-toed tracks near the foot bones of a Gallimimus.
Finding dinosaur tracks in close association with body fossils is quite rare. Unfortunately, dinosaur fossil dig sites have fallen victim to poachers. It’s likely that the rest of the Gallimimus skeleton was stolen. Examples of these footprints are depicted on the display base of the Gallimimus figure, the base also features the fossil foot bones, highlighting the issues surrounding illegal fossil poaching.
• Period: Upper Cretaceous
• Meaning: Chicken mimic
• Size: 16.2cm x 11cm
