Success

Miraculous range of motion

It takes several attempts, but in the end you are able to reconstruct a creature with an astonishing range of motion in its arms, able to reach in almost any direction.

Failure

Wrong

The forelimb attaches, but there is something off about the way the shoulder blade connects to the rest of the torso. It is hard to believe the whole skeleton is of the same age.
