FF7_Yuffie Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Hello, Just wondering if this is as described? A thesc claw would go well with my teeth and vertebra. From Hell Creek. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrehistoricWonders Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Looks like a struthiomimus claw to me, at least some type of ornithopod. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracorex_hogwartsia Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 It looks to be either a Thesc or Pachy claw but it is not complete. It is only a partial claw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dracorex_hogwartsia Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Complete Pachy/Thesc claws in very nice condition used to be fairly common and at reasonable prices. If you keep your eye out you can probably find one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleoNoel Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I agree with @Dracorex_hogwartsia, probably pachy or thesc, heavily worn down. I found two probable thescelosaur foot claws last year in the Hell Creek in SD & ND, both were in decent condition, with a clear blood vessel groove. Larger of the two: Seems like a large adult. smaller specimen: maybe a baby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 The ventral side is pretty flat so would lean toward a Thescelosaurus claw. Its just the tip and like Dracorex said lots of complete one available at reasonable prices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
