Jurassic coprolite - The whitish deposits and inclusions in the coprolite are digested remnants of the bone material of the prey - often the bones of other carnivores or meat-eaters.
Coprolites are fossilized feces from very large animals of the Jurassic period, often from dinosaurs, or other vertebrates such as carnivores and meat-eaters.
They were first described in 1829 by William Buckland. Science reveals, with coprolites, the feeding habits of dinosaurs or other carnivores and meat-eaters of the Jurassic era.
Often coprolites contain inside them fossilized fish bones and scales, sometimes even bones of smaller ichthyosaurs and numerous other prey animals.
Fully intact coprolites are very rare; our specimen comes from Madagascar and offers a realistic glimpse into the fauna of the Jurassic era.
It has been scientifically proven that coprolites originate directly from very large land dwellers, mammals, carnivorous birds, and dinosaurs.
This coprolite is very large, heavy, and fully preserved
Origin: Madagascar, fossil locality
Madagascar is regarded as a treasure trove of Jurassic fossils, such as dinosaur bones, teeth and fossil skeletal remains, turtle shells and much more
A unique, valuable genuine fossil from the Jurassic period. Delivery with a gold-colored metal stand.
