Standing Fossil Matrix - Height: 36.5 cm - Width: 11.5 cm- 1750 g

Large partly polished fossil ornament +/- 36.5x11.5x6.5cm - 1750gram -ORTHOCERAS (fossil "squid") -AMMONITE Orthoceras was a shell cephalopod that lived throughout the Ordovician and the Triassic in all the seas and ate sea scorpions and trilobites. This big cephalopod was a huge predator and it was also on top of the food chain of its time. Its favourite prey was the Trilobites, as it was easy to catch, and we see that the Ammonite was very voracious, as three trilobites were found within one, and it was never satisfied. Its shell was filled with air to keep in the same place. It became extinct in the Triassic period, in the extinction event at the end of that period. The fossil we are presenting is a plate with multiple polished fossils. This Xclusive Item will be shipped very well packed. Furthermore, fragile tape will be placed on the package and a track code to track your package is available after sending out. Please take a good look at the photos, they are part of the description.
