2.3" Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) Caudal Vertebra w/ Metal Stand- Wyoming

This is a 2.3" wide caudal vertebra centrum of a hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus annectens) from our partner's lease on the Lance (Creek) Formation in Wyoming. The bone preservation is nice, with beautiful brown-white coloration.

Comes with the pictured custom metal display stand.

There is some gap fill restoration along a repaired crack through the vertebra, with some significant restoration along the edge of the centrum.

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.
