Description: New Zealand dinosaur. Although the
evidence is rare, fossils reveal that there were dinosaurs in New Zealand.
Possibly because it lacks the right conditions for fossilisation, only
fragments of bone and a few vertebrae have been found there. Because these
fossils are only a single bone or a piece of a bone, we cannot identify the
dinosaur's species, but by comparing the fossils with others we can see
which family or order it belonged to. We have recognised that these bone
pieces are from a Plesiosaur (large, long-necked marine reptile).

Description:
Gastroliths ('stomach
stones' or 'gizzard
stones'). Cloverly Formation, Montana. Early Cretaceous, 110MYA. 13 pieces. Gastroliths are
rocks,
which are or have been held inside the
digestive tract
of an animal. Some extinct animals, such as sauropod dinosaurs, appear to
have used stones to grind tough plant matter. Gastroliths associated with
dinosaur
fossils can be several kilograms in weight.
Size: 50 X 40mm average. |

Description:
Dinosaur Bone. Possibly from
an Alamosaurus as it was found in New Mexico, USA.
Extremely heavy and densely mineralised, this bone is an impressive display
item which comes with a custom-made steel stand. Bones such as this are very
rare and highly sought after by museums.
Living in Late Cretaceous times, Alamosaurus was among the last sauropods to
live before the mass extinction of the dinosaurs.
Size: 885mm. |
