11/96--Part of a fossilized mammal skull juts out of a rock. The remainder of the skull is buried within the rock. Using CAT scans and computer technology, Purdue grad student Cathrin De Nooyer was able to construct a series of three-dimensional views of the entire skull. The skull belonged to a small fox-like mammal that lived 35 million to 55 million years ago.
