Pleased to release 3D model (w/o fur) of adult male Polar bear (Kalluk, 2.44 m) from San Diego Zoo. We thank Megan Owen & the Zoo for funding and guidance. @jerbotnet created bear from images & video and did an amazing job. #free 3D model download link

Based on encouraging signs from @EpicGames about not removing open-access content, we are re-enabling our @Sketchfab Digital Life Site for free downloads. We will keep working on an alternative if the open-access content is disallowed, but we are hoping for a positive outcome 🙂

@thamnobravo @LAevolving Thanks!

For more detail, please see this website from @OxyMLZ Bringing a vanished bird back to life | The Moore Lab of Zoology | Occidental College

And here is the 3D mesh of the bird - showing all the flight feathers - all carefully reconstructed!

Here is the bird climbing a pine tree

@jerbotnet Absolutely Jer - we will make sure its still accessible - and for free as always!

In anticipation of @Sketchfab removing #openaccess content, we are removing download options on our 3D models & migrating our content to & Please visit those websites if you want to download our 3D animals.

@Ninjemys @duncanirschick @Sketchfab I suspect that Epic games will find out the hard way that these marketplaces won't earn much money or interest. The cultural and non-profit element brought a ton of eyes to that website - now that will be gone, and the remaining content typically does not have a lot of value

@Ninjemys @duncanirschick @Sketchfab From what we can tell, there won't be any "open-access" - its all for a fee

@jerbotnet @nebulousflynn Thanks Jer - it was a good run - I guess we will have to find another home for this educational work. @nebulousflynn Pity. It was a great run for @Sketchfab

Please consider working with us! See below for information - feel free to DM us
