We have been working primarily on our shark program material but we did add a few new dinosaur fossils. For the most part they are pretty small in size but add quite a bit to the education we do. These represent some iconic and scientifically important dinosaurs. In addition to these small fossils, we added a 6" Trike frill piece from HC, a smaller piece of a Horseshoe Canyon Ceratopsian frill, and a 2.5" Hadro vert from that formation. These are excellent touch fossils so I am happy ! The small fossils are..... Dromaeosaurus sp. Judith River. I big thank you thank you to @Troodon for some ID help. This is a really nice tooth and I am really excited about this one. We can get into some fun science about the study of tooth wear in determining what dinosaurs ate.

Fast. Intelligent. Deadly. The "Raptor" is perhaps one of the most famous dinosaur today thanks to Jurassic Park. To many people's surprise however, raptors are heavily feathered and nimbler than movies would have you believe. The Jurassic Park Velociraptor was merely the size of coyote in real life! In fact, their proper family name is 'Dromaeosaurid'. The largest species was Utahraptor, and it grew to the size of a grizzly bear! Dromaeosaurid fossils have been found all over the world. They first appeared during the Cretaceous, though isolated teeth have been found in the mid-Jurassic. Allow me to present my humble collection of Dromaeosaurid teeth. First up, from Cloverly Formation, one of my pride and joy from @hxmendoza A dromaeosaurid from Aguja Formation. I am seeing more Aguja fossils showing up, but dromaeosaurid teeth are still rare. Now, for the dromaeosaurids from the famous Hell Creek Formation. Some of them probably lived alongside T. rex. A big shout-out for @Troodon for getting me started on dromaeosaurids with this very first Acheroraptor!

I saw these teeth for sale and the Id's look squirrely but I'm not an expert so look for a positive ID. All from Hell Creek Formation The seller identifies this as a Troodon tooth 1/4" looks more like a Pectinodon The others are being sold as Dromaeosaurus/Raptor All are 1/2" or less. They look like juvie Nanotyrannus

Hi everyone, I am looking to get a Dromaeosaurus tooth and found 2 that are labeled as such. The serrations look different to me so I am not sure which one I should go with. I did browse through some old threads and saw some discussions about Dromaeosaurus not being found in Hell Creek which only confused me more. #1. Hell Creek, Harding County, South Dakota #2. Hell Creek, Carter County, Montana

RED FLAG on Dromaeosaurus Teeth For Sale
Troodon posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
A member asked me to check out some auction offerings for Morrocan Dromaeosaurus teeth and I did and they of course they were improperly identified. Not being familiar with the identification of these teeth I tried to help him by checking around on different dealer websites and was appalled at what I found. What I refer to as key dinosaur suppliers, on the web, were selling Dromaeosaurus teeth from the Hell Creek Formation of Montana. What makes me more upset is that I told one of them that they do not exist. All the listings were beautiful teeth however they were not Dromaeosaurus but looked like Nanotyrannus. Reminder to all those that are interested in purchasing teeth or bones from the species Dromaeosaurus it does not exist in the Hell Creek Formation or Lance Formation or Morocco. That species can only be found in the States from the campanian deposits of the Judith River Formation and Two Medicine Formation of Montana. Canada also has a number of formations where it can be found also in Campanian deposits but you rarely see them offered for sale. The Hell Creek and Lance Formations have only two Dromaeosaurids described Acheroraptor and Dakotaraptor. So if your interested in purchasing a Dromaeosaurid tooth from those faunas it needs to be from one of those dinosaurs. Since domestic Dinosaur dealers don't seem to have their act together I suggest that you post any interest in these type of teeth here on the forum before you buy to be sure its properly identified.- 6 replies
