Description
This is a Large Fossil Bone Fragment from a dinosaur.
This was found in the Hell Creek Formation of South Dakota.
This Edmontosaurus Dinosaur Bone Fragment is from the Hell Creek Formation of South Dakota. It is from a Tibia of an Edmontosaurus that I was attempting to repair, restore and stabilize. Unfortunately the bone was so bad it was unrepairable. It was discovered at a verified Dinosaur site that was a large bone bed and many of the surrounding bones were to badly damaged and weathered to attempt recovery. Complete bones are hard to find and when found are extremely expensive. They are hard to find because of scavenger dinosaurs and bone decay. But also the bones are very brittle. If not excavated correctly they will literally fall apart. But this one has been stabilized. Dinosaurs are often found but not in a condition to be recovered and placed into museum collections.
The Cretaceous Genuine Dinosaur Edmontosaurus Rib Bone Fragment came from a bone collected legally on a ranch within the Badlands of South Dakota. Because the badlands have little vegetation, when it rains, the rains wash away sediment. So when prospecting bone fragments as well as turtle shell, fish scales and other fossils are exposed. This fragment is a piece of Genuine Dinosaur Bone from the Cretaceous Period.
There are many bone fragments found while prospecting. When the bone is exposed to the elements it begins to decay. Because this decay is rapid, a dinosaur bone may fall into dust in just a few years.
The Hell Creek Formation is one of the best locations to find dinosaur remains. But often they are damaged due to weathering.
This is your opportunity to own this exceptional fossil Large Dinosaur Bone Fragment. This is a stabilized fragment that is 4 3/8 inches long by 2 3/4 inches wide.
