Fantastic Huge Nice 38" Triceratops Lower Jaw with Tooth GroovesSpecies: Triceratops horridus Species description: Large 11 ton herbivore with frill around 6.5 ft head and 1 nose horn with 2 Brow Horns off frill. Period: Cretaceous Period 70-66.5 MYA Geologic strata: Hell Creek formation Location: Powder River, SE MONTANA Item description & rating: 12+++++ Unbelievable Large 38" Triceratops Lower Jaw in fine condition with all the supporting structures. No teeth are included from this animal but I will add some nice teeth for you. It was found by a ranchers hand this year, and is a amazing piece in structure and fully prepped. Crack fills with little restore (less than 3%) and this is very long so a large very old animal. Many people do believe these animals lived over 100 years old The detail including contours and ridges make this complete piece a nice piece with excellent bone quality. It was an underground find thus the nice brown color. All of you know I love Trike items and here is another. This is a good year for Trike bones except horns with few found this year. These large jaws are so rare I sold a small one for $800 this year. If this piece had teeth due to size and quality it would be worth over $3000 so I'm asking under ½ that at $1,279 including at least 3 nice teeth. I can sell a display also for $65 for this piece. |

Ultra Rare 9" Complete Asian Miocene Wolf SkullSpecies: Canis teilhardi Species description: It was closely related to Grey Wolf and was a canid, however, was mostly wolf and some wild canine in many features but it is not direct ancestor of any species today. It became extinct at the end of late Pliocene about 1.8 million years ago and reached its peak in Late Miocene - Early Pliocene. It was a carnivore with little known except an aggressive meat eater. Fossils are extremely rare. Geological strata: Longdan Geological period: Middle Miocene 10MYA - Late Pliocene 1.3 MYA Item location: Item rating and description: 12 ++++++1 This Beautiful Asian Miocene Wolf is so rare Im the only one in the world selling them Rarer than any asian sabercat including homotherium. It is so beautiful with excellent bone quality and a beautiful set of teeth. Its teeth are different than any other animal by far. The teeth are unbelievably good. The back of skull is nice with all items there just hidden due to stability. It is compressed some but the originality is premium with crack fills only. It even has real zygos and back of jaw. It was professionally prepped by me. It took a lot of work and it was worth it . IT has excellent bone quality and nice color. I took matrix almost all off so a huge amount of bone is shown with its brown, beige, black color. I had another one that was perfect and sold at $6800 . So someone who wants something neither museums or few individuals have. This is even rarer than dire wolf and the last dire wolf skull in America sold for $23,000 at auction recently. The only reason I got this was it was part of an old collection because finding these now is impossible since area is closed to public and digging. So IM opening up a one-of-kind mammal to everyone with this low price. I will not get another one and this time IM correct, and this is a $18,000 discount to a dire wolf, and this is rarer so. DO not ask for discounts on this one - it is way undervalued as it is now. I had 4 this is best one left and cheapest at... Price: US $3,365 Shipping: $45 Use the following methods of payment...

This is my third this month but try to find another anywhere especially with a skeleton and the mostly complete skeleton is premo, top notch, #numero uno. All the leg bones are there with most of vertebrae which are hardly ever found due to brittleness of bones. It is a rarity and hardly ever seen. While in matrix all teeth on one side as well as all other components are present. All teeth, zygos, both of lower jaws and the back are there in beautiful shape, which is not normal. The detail, color and completeness is just phenomenal. This is a pristine piece and can be yours as great things come in small packages. What an attention getter and conversation piece. You can show everyone that all dogs descended from this animal. |

Rarest of Rare Adelphailurus kansensis Saber-Tooth CatSpecies: Adelphailurus kansensis saber-tooth cat Species description: This the rarest of all saber-cats found in USA that lived from early Miocene 6-8 MYA that were the size of a modern cougar or puma. Its body also had same shape as a puma except long and compressed upper canine they were a hunting cat hunting small birds, mammals in ambush. This cat was a false – saber-tooth cat and had retained a upper second pre-molar, which is unusual for a cat. It was the second largest of late Miocene cats and was an Eurasian immigrant. It was a metailurus animal, which besides this species and one other was only found in Asia and a few in Europe. It is not one of top 6 saber-cats found and has only been found in partials with top of skull never been found according to all known documents. It was identified by Hilbert in 1934. Only a few skull pieces and few partial bones namely a humerus, radius, ulna, first phalanx have been found even though named after the state of Kansas. Most bones and skull pieces have been found in Arizona including this one. One was found in Bone Valley Florida also. Geological formation: Milk Creek Formation Geologic period: 8-6 MYA Miocene Early Hempghillan Tribe-Metailurini Genus: Metailurus Item location: Congress Junction, Arizona Item description and rating: 12++++ 11" long x 7" agape Adelphailurus kansensis saber-tooth cat. This is about 40 % original but actually one of more complete skulls found. This is unreal and you will never find another. Original parts include 3 jaws with 3 of 4 molar teeth groupings original and back of cat including condyles and strip of skull with one saber original and both lower end canine incisors. No complete of top of skull as ever been found as last picture shows parts found but since metailurus we could reconstruct. This saber-cat you will never see for sale anywhere since it is the rarest of all saber-tooth cats with only a few partial skulls found. This is a real beauty and professionally prepped. This cat is so amazing words can’t describe it and you will not be able to stop looking at it. Complete skulls or even 50% skulls do not exist and even though percentage low of originality it is an accurate representation of the species and is just like finding a smilodon in my opinion. Anyway this is a chance to own the rarest of rare saber cats and much larger than earlier saber-tooth cats. |

Fantastic Large Triceratops Articulated Neck Multiple VertebraeSpecies: Triceratops horridus Species description: Large 11 ton herbivore with frill around 6.5 ft head and 1 nose horn with 2 Brow Horns off frill. Period: Cretaceous Period 70-66.5MYA Geologic strata: Hell Creek formation Location: Glendive Private Ranch, Montana Item description & rating: 1-12- 12 Unbelieveable Articulated Triceratops Neck Vertebrae w/ Back of Skeleton attached. I doubt anyone has seen this piece-actually comes in two pieces- at all. It measures both pieces together 28" by 9" high and very heavy from an adult Trike. It comes from same huge animal the horn is from , and I also have a huge piece of frill. The bone is of very nice quality and size and detail is magnificient. The back of skull with condyles has been attached to one large first Neck Vertebrae and two others are easily attached but not done so due to weight with perfect attachment point. It was professionally prepped with almost all matrix removed. IT has nice color due to underground find and is complete to a high degree except latter two vert. processes. This unit has large amount of pieces provided prepped and would make an awesome display in anyone home or museum. The rareness of this piece alone is amazing since neck vertebrae from large dinosaurs are hardly ever found. |
