jpc Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Hey william... Nice titanothere jaw. Hate to be the one to tell you, but about 10 or 20 years ago, radioisotopic studies found that the bottom of the White River Fm is actually latest Eocene. So contrary to the title of the post... titanotheres went extinct at the end of the Eocene. But hey, not many of us have a titanothere jaw.

FossilDudeCO Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Testudo thomsoni Less than 5% restoration (probably closer to 3% but I'd rather quote higher) I have an oreodont skull somewhere around here, but its getting late. Maybe tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
