About the Item

A Fossil Spinosaurus Dinosaur Tibia 2.3ft leg section in surmounted bronze AES stand. Unearthed in the continental intercalaire, this 2.3-foot Spinosaurus tibia section highlights a nineteen million-year evolutionary prowess. The Spinosaurus was an adept predator with specialised hunting capabilities that is infamously recognised for its sail-like dorsal fin, massive crocodilian-like jaws, and robust and elongated killing claws. Its agility surpassed similar-sized dinosaurs, making it highly successful in aquatic and terrestrial environments. The historical context and rarity of Spinosaurus specimens in discoveries amplify their appeal among researchers and collectors eager to delve into the mysteries of this colossal predator from the past. CONDITION Presenting an important scientific discovery, a Spinosaurus aegyptiacus dinosaur tibia measures 2.3 feet and boasts exceptional museum quality. This outstanding specimen may provide insights into its potential demise, exhibiting savage, possible claw marks on the bone surface extending diagonally across the mid-upper section. The vibrant red hues from the Drâa region enhance this well-preserved tibia’s stability and visual appeal.
