Dinosaur Eggs from Heyuan, China
Crazyhen posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
This is a clutch of 3 eggs from Heyuan, China. The egg measures about 9cm. Are they genuine? What about the shell coverage %? -
Got access to some more private land near Dinosaur PP, company owned. My friend was familiar with this area since he was a kid so he said we should check it out, and we found some awesome dinosaur fossils! So far nothing was collected, but yesterday I got ahold of the land supervisor for the company and after receiving some paperwork coming my way on Monday I will be permitted to surface collect anything I find in this area, so this thread will be updated with more finds this coming week. Here are some photos of what we found so far: A lot of the bones looked like they were from a hadrosaur, sort of confirmed when I found this hadrosaur tooth. However there were two partial tyrannosaurid teeth nearby as well...maybe the hadrosaur got munched on... Limb bone (?) with multiple vertebrae nearby. I set them next to the large bone for the photo. Another vert, this one is in the ground so unfortunately I can’t do anything with it. Many, many bones were scattered around the area. Much more photos to come...very excited about collecting here!!

Hello, a selection of Hadrosaur teeth I'm interested in. Seller is uncertain of species on most, so any thoughts appreciated. 1 - From Judith River formation. 0.3 inch 2 - Judith river. 0.6 inch. Seems same species as 1? 3 - Judith river. 0.7 inch This one, it doesn't too clearly but seller says the tooth has denticles on the rim of the crown resembling Gryposaurus, but says Gryposaurus isn't from this formation yet. This one interests me most. 4 - Lance Formation. 0.8 inch. This one, seller is confident to be edmontosaurus. Many thanks

Fossil Hunting From The Safety Of Your Home
Mioplosus_Lover24 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
With the current pandemic I decided now was as good of a time as any to get some matrix from the Aguja Formation with the help of PaleoTex! This turned out to be a great decision as I was extremely lucky, finding about basically everything I wanted to, and more in only 5 pounds of matrix! I'll be sure to post pictures but I got numerous amia and gar teeth, along with atleast 36 gar scales. Tons of Crocodile teeth including a large Deinosuchus tooth. Several shark teeth and a partial hybodus spine, also several brackish water pycnodontid teeth and tooth pallets. 4 fish or salamander jaws with teeth. Regarding dinosaur teeth I got 17 Hadrosaur teeth, including 2 partially rooted. A partial Ankylosaurus tooth. 4 Therapod teeth including a perfect Saurornitholestes tooth and a Premax. My favorite find however was the Paronychodon tooth I found! I'll be posting that picture first! Highly recommend this matrix, but I was also told that most people don't find all this stuff, so keep that in mind aswell. Stay safe! Happy hunting!

From Hell Creek. Matches others online, but I will double check here to make sure. Would be a nice, cheap companion piece for my small hadrosaur teeth. 4 x 4 x 1.2. Thanks

Dinosaur skin -- edmontosaurus
FF7_Yuffie posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I've seen a couple of these for sale. This one is in my budget, but are they legit? Described as fragment of Edmonotosaurus skin from Hell Creek. It is 3 cm. by 2cm. Thanks- 2 replies

Hadrosaur skin impression?
BonuFrailman posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Good afternoon everyone, I’ve previously seen some skin impressions on the auction site but not one for a low price like this one. However, I have trouble seeing where the scale impressions are on the fossil and was wondering if you guys could make them out, if this even is a skin impression. Fossil is 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm From the Hell Creek Formation near Baker, Montana.- 9 replies

Hey all, I found one tooth that’s certainly from a hadrosaur a while back, and I found this other one sitting right beside it but it’s pretty funky looking. Hoping you could tell me if it’s a hadrosaur tooth as well or just a suspicious rock. (Bottom one in the pic with the measuring tape) Thanks!

Hi All, This is suppose to be a hadrosaur toe bone that has evidence of predation. Looks like big claw gashes, maybe ungal claws from a Rex? Please comment on your thoughts? Enjoy!

Indet. Hadrosauridae, self collected from a river site. Dinosaur teeth from North Carolina are very uncommon and very understudied. Remains other than teeth are mostly unidentifiable bone shards.

I bought this YEARS ago and it has been sitting on a shelf ever since. Never took the time to verify it's authenticity, but from what I have seen on this site it definitely appears to be fake.

Here is a hadrosaur ungal that appears to have been chomped on postmortem by a big carnivore, like Rex. Found in Hellcreek SD. What do you all think?

Hello, I recently finishing preparing this fossil and you may have seen it in the Prep section, however given I would also appreciate an ID, the smart suggestion was made to move it here. I bought this off Ryan at Hell Creek Dinosaurs who discovered it on one of his trips last summer to Hell Creek. Apologies for not having it next to a scale, but it's 46cm long. Ryan suggested it could be a Triceratops or a Hardosaur (Edmontosaurus one assumes) and although I was erring on the latter, will admit having seen some trike fibulas recently, now I'm not 100% sure, hence this post. Showing pics from the find (Ryan very kindly agreed I could use. Thanks again!) and now after prep. If these aren't clear enough or you need more to be able to help, just let me know. Any thoughts much appreciated. Thanks Dave ps: If you're questioning the prep, in my defence, it was my first ever...

Hey, Others viewing this section regularly will see my current project is a mosasaur skull, I have however been splitting my time between this and finishing my last (first real) prep project which has been dragging a little; this fibula. I bought this off a top chap (Ryan at Hell Creek Dinosaurs) who discovered it on one of his trips last summer, but decided it wasn't one for his collection. It was covered in a horrible chalk/clay coating which (as Ryan predicted) was the stuff of nightmares to get off. That said, with dark nights and miserable weather in the UK, time was something I have had on my side recently, so three months later, here's the finished item. In reality, it's been finished for a while, but I only got round to making the display stand yesterday and wanted to show the finished project. It's about 50cm long and comes from the Hell Creek formation. Ryan suggested it could be a Triceratops or a Hardosaur (Edmontosaurus one assumes) and although I'm erring on the latter, will admit I'm not 100% sure, so please let me know if you have a clearer opinion! Given this is my first 'real' prep job, would love to know thoughts and/or improvements I could make - It came in six sections, they were cleaned using a variety of tools (engraver, Dremel, dentist pics and various other hand tools/abrasives). End of each section stabilised and strengthened with CA, glued together with epoxy and finally coated in PVB to protect. Showing pics from find (Ryan very kindly agreed I could use. Sir, if you're a member of this forum and happen to see this, thanks again!) all the way through to now (as at yesterday in fact) Cheers Dave

A Walk Through Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, Canada - 22/7/18
Paleoworld-101 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
This report is a bit late, but better late than never! During late July through to mid August 2018 i was on a research trip to study a new Canadian dinosaur footprint site for my Masters degree project. I am based in Australia, and this was the first time i had been to Canada! So of course i had to make the most of it and pay a visit to the world renowned Dinosaur Provincial Park in southern Alberta, arguably the richest site in the world for dinosaur fossils. The park is the best exposure of the Dinosaur Park Formation (which it is now named after), which dates to about 76.5 million years ago during the mid-Campanian. I had long read about this location and watched it on documentaries for so many years growing up as a kid. Finally being there in person was very surreal! I was quite lucky and managed to go on a long, extended walk through the park with one of the guides for about 6 hours in total. In this relatively short amount of time i observed so many amazing fossils. I must have been completely desensitised within the first 30 minutes! It really is incredible how much fossil material there is lying all over the park. In Australia, whole scientific papers are written about isolated or fragmentary dinosaur bones, yet here they were just lying everywhere! The pictures really speak for themselves. As said, all of these fossils were observed in the field during a single days visit to the park. As this is a World Heritage site, nothing was taken, all finds were put straight back onto the ground after i took these photos. It's a VERY hard thing to do, but rules are rules. The only thing that was removed from the park on my trip was my best find of the day... a near-perfect 5.3 cm tyrannosaur tooth from Gorgosaurus!!!! This find was too special to leave behind, so the park tour guide GPS marked the location and brought it back for display, likely at the visitor centre or as a demonstration piece for their guided tours. To say that i have found a tyrannosaur tooth is a great honour! You may remember it from the July 2018 VFOTM poll. Without further ado, here are the pics! It is going to take multiple posts to fit them all in, so scroll all the way down to see them all! Various dinosaur vertebrae. Everything from hadrosaurs (duck billed dinosaurs) and ceratopsians (horned dinosaurs) to theropods (two legged meat eaters) and ankylosaurs (armoured dinosaurs). These were so common! I would probably pick a new one up every 5 minutes or so. Ankylosaur tooth- 17 replies

Hi I just bought these two dinosaur fossils from Alberta Canada. A Ceratopsian vert and a Hadrosaur metatarsal. The colouring and look/preservation of the Hadrosaur metatarsal makes me think they didn’t come from the Horseshoe canyon formation like it says but instead the Dinosaur Park formation. since it doesn’t give much information other then the Horseshoe canyon formation it’s possible, Thanks for future help. Ceratopsian vert

Hey everyone, I recently came across these two teeth online. They're both pretty worn down and might no longer possess the features necessary for a more detailed ID, but I'd appreciate your help in confirming that these are actually Hadrosaurid teeth. [images attached are the seller's] Tooth 1 comes from the Judith River Formation of Montana; measuring roughly 9mm [not specified in which direction; I assume depth].  Tooth 2 comes from parts of the Aguja Formation in Western Texas; measuring approximately 13x11mm [not specified along which sides]. Thank you for your help!

I found these two teeth in some matrix that I recently brought back from the Aguja formation in West Texas, Brewster county. I think one is a dromaeosaur tooth and the other a hadrosaur tooth.The serrations on both sides of the theropod tooth are about 6 per 1mm. The scale in the photos is 1mm. What do you think? Thanks for any help.
