I've seen the actual fossil Tiktaalik, but it's nice to have a virtual version of my own to play with.

@pzmyers I'll never understand why these scans aren't released with printable shape files, too. You can do some much in a classroom with a bunch of printable bio models.
@DrAndrewThaler Because 3-D printers aren't commonplace, yet? I don't have one myself, but have been eyeballing a few.
@pzmyers In the home, maybe, but I can't think of a single university I've been to in the last 5 years that doesn't have at least one somewhere. Decent ones are like $200 now.
@pzmyers Schools, too. Makerbot, for all its flaws, has done a tremendous job getting printers into schools.
