About this 3D model

Time Period : Late Eocene (approximately 37-33.9 million years ago)Location : Egypt and possibly other regionsSize : Ranged from 5 to 7 meters in length Available sizes • Medium – 1:35 of the actual size | Normal, Pre-supported and Hollowed versions Description Dorudon atrox is an extinct species of basilosaurid archaeocete cetacean that lived approximately 40-35 million years ago during the late Eocene epoch. Discovered in Egypt and other parts of the world, it represents an important transitional stage in the evolution of whales. Dorudon had a streamlined body, elongated jaws with sharp teeth, and well-developed limbs that retained some ability for terrestrial movement. As a fully aquatic creature, it likely preyed on fish and other marine organisms. The discovery of Dorudon atrox has provided valuable insights into the evolutionary history of whales, shedding light on the adaptations that led to the development of modern cetaceans.
