Sauropod Dinosaur (Diplodocus) Teeth in Situ - Bone Cabin Quarry
This 6" wide piece of rock contains two beautifully preserved sauropod (Diplodocus carnegii) teeth, collected from the famous Bone Cabin Quarry in Carbon County, Wyoming. They measure 1.7" long and .9" long, and were found naturally associated with each other. The sandstone has been stabilized to prevent crumbling.
It comes with an acrylic display case.
One of the best-known sauropods, Diplodocus was a very large long-necked quadrupedal animal with a long, whip-like tail. It could reach up to 115 feet in length but had a relatively small skull, and a mouth full of small peg-like teeth.

The Bone Cabin Quarry has historical significance because it was discovered in 1897 and excavated by the American Museum of Natural History from 1898 through 1905. It lies near the famous Como Bluff and got its name from a nearby sheepherder's cabin built entirely out of fossil dinosaur bones. This quarry now lies on private land, where it continues to be excavated.
