1.8" Sandstone With Hadrosaur Tooth, Tendon & Bone - Wyoming
This 1.8" wide piece of rock contains a hadrosaur tooth, a piece of ossified tendon, and what appears to be a partial vertebra. It was collected from the Lance Creek Formation of Wyoming.
Hadrosaurs
are frequently referred to as duck-billed dinosaurs and are members of the Ornithischian family Hadrosauridae. They were fairly common herbivores that roamed Asia, Europe, and North America during the Upper Cretaceous Period. Many species of Hadrosaurs had distinctive crests on their heads, some of which had air-filled chambers that may have produced a distinct sound. These crests may have been used for both audio and visual display purposes.
