| Kelenken (Middle Miocene of Río Negro province, Argentina (largest known phorusrhacid giant species 3.2 metres (10 ft) high
Paraceratherium is the largest land mammal known, larger than the largest species of mammoths (Mammuthus sungari, which may have approached it in size and weight). It is also known as the "giraffe rhinoceros". Adult Paraceratherium are estimated to have been 5.5 metres (18 ft) tall at the shoulder, 9 metres (30 ft) in length from nose to rump, a maximum raised head height of about 8 metres (26 ft), and a skull length of 1.5 metres (4.9 ft).
so the scale isn't that perfect
but who cares,,it's a great model |

| Yes you are right, of course. The kelenken should have been less than half the height of the Paraceratherium CollectA does not have that sort of considerations, it seems to me. They don`t even mention the scale, as far as I can se |

| Nice adition Susanne! And I also like the flamingo :)
Just one question, are birds soft and easily bendable as new Collecta horses are, or are they made of hard plastic? _________________ Visit my collection gallery at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Visit my art gallery at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]I accept commissions! |

| What a lovely and sweet birdie Susanne, haha! He reminds me of my handtame budgie Miko, who likes to bite always in the first place, now i know from where she the genes has... The flamingo is much sweeter i guess, i still need that one to for my flamingo flock. |
