Collected from the private ranch Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota.
Achelousaurus is a genus of centrosaurine ceratopsid (quadrupedal herbivores, characterized by beaks, horns, frills and teeth at the back of its jaw) dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous period of what is now North America. Their fossils are dated back to roughly 74 million years ago, many of which have been recovered from Montana. They were herbivorous dinosaurs that sometimes reached 20 feet in length, with a full grown skull measuring 5 feet long.
The photos are representative of one (1) randomly chosen fossil you will receive. Each fossilized bone fragment is nicely packaged with an informational insert.
This is an authentic Raptor Bone Fragment.
Please be aware of the nature of fossils:
Being buried under the ground for millions of years under tons of pressure tends to be rough. No fossil comes out of the ground whole and perfect. Most fossils have undergone some restoration, while others are altered by man simply to enhance their presentation in different ways. The workers do a very professional job, unearthing and preserving these natural treasures, however, commonly natural cracks are visible on the surface. These are part of the natural beauty of the fossil and not considered defects.
