The VMNH paleo team made it at long last to the Sanford Museum & Planetarium

The VMNH paleo team made it at long last to the Sanford Museum & Planetarium. We packed up a rare and amazingly preserved pelvis of the giant sloth Megalonyx. This sloth lived across America, including Virginia & Iowa. This will be cast at VMNH to help make a full giant sloth skeleton for our exhibits. Great museum in Cherokee, Iowa!
