Birds carry a set of skeletal features that make flight possible, and a pigeon skeleton shows them in one place. Students can find the deep keel on the breastbone that anchors the flight muscles, the wishbone formed by the fused collarbones, the stiff, partly fused back and hip region, and the short tail bone that supports the tail feathers. The toothless beak and large eye sockets are easy talking points as well.
The specimen works well in lessons on the classification of vertebrates and in practical exams where students name a bone and explain its role in flight. Place it beside a bat skeleton to discuss how birds and mammals arrived at flight in different ways. Stand the case on a stable, level surface, view it at eye level, and keep it in a dry cupboard away from direct sunlight.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited supplies the pigeon skeleton under its ScienceLab name from Ambala, Haryana, India. It is available to schools, colleges, universities and resellers as a single display piece or as part of a vertebrate skeleton collection, for delivery within India and to international markets.
