Tyrannosaurus Rex Femur Head

Geologic Time: Late Cretaceous 68 to 70 million years

Geologic Formation: Hell Creek

Locality: Montana

Specimen note: This is a proximal femur head from a juvenile Tyrannosaurus Rex.. It is 11 inches long and has no restoration. This specimen is a very solid bone and shows excellent detail. The species Tyrannosaurus rex ('rex' meaning 'king' in Latin), commonly abbreviated to T. rex , is a fixture in popular culture. It lived throughout what is now western North America, with a much wider range than other tyrannosaurids. Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the largest land carnivores of all time. It would be a great teaching piece or a nice holiday gift!

This a certified Dino Lab specimen. What does that mean to you? 1. All Dino Lab fossils are professionally and legally collected on privately deeded lands with the full knowledge and consent of the property owner. 2.

Dino Lab Fossils - Mission Statement We at Dino Lab Fossils believe first that all fossils should be enjoyed by everyone from public museums to individuals at home. We also strongly believe in the advancement of our science and our total sum of human knowledge about our earth's history. We do not advocate private ownership of fossils that are scientifically significant because lack of access to a fossil impedes the goal of academic and research programs. With that commitment in mind Dino Lab Fossils will not offer scientifically significant fossils to the general public as we feel they should be reserved for purchase by institutions of higher learning such as museums and universities. Our goal is to provide fossil specimens to the public in a ethical and responsible way.
