Maisaura with Nest - Carnegie Collection
THIS MODEL HAS NOW BEEN DISCONTINUED BY SAFARI
This cute Maisaura with her nest of just hatched babies is known in the office as Mama Mia-saur
Maisaura were big, peaceful herbivores which lived in huge nesting colonies (a bit like sea birds) and their name means 'caring mother lizard'
She has the classic 'duck-billed' Hadrosaur face with the bony crest above the eyes.
She's 20cm from nose to tail and around 7.5cm high
The nest is a completely separate item and is around 8cm in diameter and has two itty bitty Maisaura babies inside
