Ginger0412 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Is this the tail of an ankylosaurus? If anyone knows, please let me know! Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I'm no expert on dinosaurs, but I think it would certainly help those here who are if you could give us the stratigraphy and location of this find.

FB003 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 The black ring going around it is a little odd. Don't think I've seen that from any hell creek material before. *Frank* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 No not a tail. Different, not sure Might be a side osteoderm of a Nodosaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no expert - I'm just going off of what I know from Troodon - but there's multiple formations in hell creek, so to truly determine something, the county is needed. Fossils? I dig it.

You indicated that there are multiple formations in hell creek. No there are multiple formations in Montana and the county will verify if its from the Hell Creek Formation We still can try to figure out what type of dinosaur this bone belongs to. . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadrosauridae Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 49 minutes ago, Redhead Rex said: Horn core? Of smaller ceratopsian. Definitely not a tail club. It does seem much closer in both overall shape and blood vessel channeling to be a horn core. "There is no shortage of fossils.
