DescriptionFour cowboys on horseback wrangle a dinosaur labeled "Museum Collections" with lassos. The cowboys labeled "The PHYSICAL" and "The ADMINISTRATIVE" each have a hold of the velociraptor, while "The ETHICAL" raises his lasso in a loop, aiming to throw. The cowboy labeled "The INTELLECTUAL" rides in the opposite direction. This record has been reviewed by University Galleries staff but may be incomplete or contain errors.
