Tumbled Dinosaur Coprolite Fossil in Display Case
A wonderfully unusual piece of natural history, this tumbled dinosaur coprolite is a genuine fossilised example of prehistoric dung, preserved for millions of years and presented in a clear display case.
Coprolites are fossilised animal droppings. Although they may sound amusing, they are valuable scientific fossils because they can offer clues about the diet, environment and wildlife of the ancient world. The accompanying label identifies this specimen as Cretaceous, approximately 100–80 million years old, from Utah, USA.

Small enough to display on a shelf, desk or within a fossil collection, this coprolite is a brilliant conversation starter and an unusual gift for dinosaur lovers, fossil collectors, science enthusiasts or anyone who enjoys the stranger side of natural history.
Coprolites are natural fossils, so each piece will vary in size, shape, colour, texture and fossilised markings. The exact specimen supplied may differ slightly from the examples shown in the photographs.
