AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

199 g approximately, 9.80 x 4.60 x 3.80 cm
Genuine African FOSSIL - petrified feces - Fossil excrement from the Jurassic period about 150 million years old - scientific name: Coprolite
Age: 150 million years (Middle Jurassic)
Jurassic coprolite
Coprolites are fossilized feces from very large animals of the Jurassic period, often dinosaurs or other vertebrates such as carnivores and meat-eaters.
They were first described in 1829 by William Buckland. Science reveals the feeding habits of dinosaurs or other predators and carnivores of the Jurassic period through coprolites.
Coprolites often contain fossilized fish bones and scales inside, sometimes even bones of smaller ichthyosaurs and numerous other prey animals.
Remains of coprolites that are still fully preserved are very rare; our specimen comes from Madagascar and offers a realistic glimpse into the fauna of the Jurassic period.
It has been scientifically proven that coprolites originate directly from very large land animals, mammals, carnivorous birds, and dinosaurs.
This coprolite is very large, heavy, and completely preserved.
Weight: 199 grams
Location: Madagascar, fossil site
Madagascar is considered a treasure trove of Jurassic fossils, such as dinosaur bones, teeth, fossil skeleton remains, turtle shells, and much more.
Unique, valuable genuine Jurassic fossil. Delivery with stand.
