That incredibly useful company Bone Clones sells a cast of the humerus of a Manatee. There is a picture in their catalogue.

>Hi,
>does someone by chance have drawings or photos of an adult manatee (Trichechus) humerus? Side does not matter.
>It's still about those bones I posted (at http://www.alexandriaarchive.org/icaz/icazForum/viewtopic.php?t=1094), where the femur apparently is from a seal (many thanks to those of you who helped id that specimens), but the humerus not; the most likely candidate is a manatee, but unfortunately we don't have manatee in our collection either.
