13.3" Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) Tibia End - South Dakota
This is a 13.3" long Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) tibia end (proximal) from the Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota. This bone is quite compressed and required significant gap fill restoration in spots where the bone had begun to crumble. Most of this restoration and crack repair is around points of articulation.
This tibia end has been mounted with glue to a wood display stand. The base of the wood stand has felt rounds to prevent scratching of the display surface.

The Hell Creek Formation
Renowned for both its age and rich sedimentary layers, the Hell Creek Formation is one of the most intensively studied fossil-bearing regions on Earth. To date, scientists have documented 158 genera of animals and 64 genera of plants from its rocks, with new finds emerging regularly. Beyond iconic dinosaurs such as tyrannosaurs, ceratopsians, and hadrosaurs, the formation has produced an extraordinary array of life, including amphibians, reptiles, lizards, snakes, turtles, fish, sharks, birds, and early mammals. Together, these fossils provide the most complete picture of the ecosystems that thrived just before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
