3D scan of an original fossilized skeleton of a giant deer (*Megaloceros giganteus*) found in Ireland from the Late Pleistocene (ca. 12,000 years old). The males had a shoulder height of around 2.1 meters and their antlers are the largest known in any deer with a width up to 4 meters. The giant deer disappeared around 11,700 years ago in Europe, like many other animals from the Ice Age. The skeleton of the giant deer can be found in Hall 16 at the NHM Vienna. **Specimen**: Giant deer or Irish elk, *Megaloceros giganteus* (Blumenbach, 1799) **Inventory number**: NHMW-GEO-1876/0030/0003 **Collection**: Natural History Museum Vienna, Geology & Paleontology Dept., Vertebrate Coll.
