Triceratops Rib Section

A piece of rib from the famous horned dinosaur, Triceratops. It comes from the Hell Creek Formation in Carter County, Montana. This formation was laid down by ancient floodplains in the Late Cretaceous and preserves fossils of Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus, as well as many other well known dinosaurs. Its top, the K-Pg boundary, marks the asteroid impact that ended the dinosaurs.

This is a nice section of rib - several other pieces of the same rib were found in assosiation but it was too incomplete to piece back together. It has no repairs or restoration. The bone comes with a display stand as pictured and a small card featuring the specimen name, region it was found, age and a QR code linking to some information about Triceratops.

This is genuine fossil. All the specimens we offer come with a lifetime authenticity guarantee.
