And now for that which needs no introduction, but will get one anyway. These are tooth fragments from TYRANNOSAURUS REX from the Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota, USA! The tooth fragments measure between .5 and .7 Inches! Each Tooth fragment comes in a 3.5 x 3.5 inch floating frame with and info card that labels the fossil, details the age and location it was found, and some fun facts about T-Rex!
YES THESE ARE AUTHENTIC!
YES I AM SURE THEY ARE FROM A T-REX! These fragments came from a large tooth that disintegrated and could not be reassembled.
You will receive one floating frame T-Rex Tooth fragment per order. Pictured are the fragments available, you may pick whichever one you want and it will come in a floating frame with a label like the one shown. If I don't hear from you before shipping, one will be picked at random.
Even if you're not a paleontologist, or even a scientist, you've almost certainly heard of T-rex. The monster sized carnivore ruled Late Cretaceous North America with a stubby, two fingered iron fist! Growing to over 40 feet (12 meters) in length and over 15 TONS of muscle teeth and claws!! Unlike other carnivorous dinosaurs, T-rex was extraordinarily bulky and muscular. Although there were some carnivorous dinosaurs who exceeded T-rex in length, comparing them to T-Rex is like comparing a NBA player to a bodybuilder on steroids! This was reflected in its teeth which are much thicker than other carnivorous dinosaur teeth to withstand its gargantuan bite force, bearing more of a resemblance to serrated spikes than serrated knives. The juveniles were more svelte than the adults, built more for speed than power. It has even been suggested that they would engage in cooperative hunting, the youngsters would use their speed to push potential prey towards the massive jaws of the adults. Like other dinosaurs, T-rex went through multiple sets of teeth in its lifetime, spitting out an old tooth when a new one was ready to take its place.
No fossil collection is complete without a fossil from THE most iconic of all prehistoric species! This is a great opportunity to own a piece of that history!
All of my items come with a Certificate of Authenticity!
