It's all about 3D - Mandrillus sphinx

This gallery is part of the OpenUp! 3D series that builds galleries around certain 3D objects. This time we chose a 3D digitized skull of a Mandrill (Mandrillus Squinx) of the Natural Science Museum of Barcelona. Mandrills are omnivores and live in Central Africa (Gabon, Kongo, Guinea, Kamerun). The males are known for their red and blue colored spots in the face and behind region. Their patriarchal social and behavioral system is quite complex. Their groups can reach up to 200 individuals.
