Sauropod Dinosaur Vertebra Sauropod Jurassic Utah, USA Few vertebrate fossils capture the imagination as much as a complete Dinosaur vertebra. This offering of a single bone likely represents one of the caudal, or tail, vertebrae from a large, plant-eating Dinosaur of the Sauropod variety. With a classic "hourglass" shape and shallow indentations on each end, this fossil exhibits nice preservation, mottled coloration, and good size, with the piece measuring 5 inches (12.7 cm) in length. Evidence of expected stabilization is visible on the surface of the singular bone, dating back to the Jurassic, which is a nice combination of size, condition, and form. This fossil really does look the part. Measurements: 5.91 x 4.92 x 4.13 inches (15.00 x 12.50 x 10.50 cm) HID09710052018 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
