About the Item
This extraordinary fossilized dire wolf skull is a rare and remarkable artifact that offers a glimpse into the Ice Age. Featuring well-preserved bone structure, this specimen is a testament to the strength and resilience of one of the most iconic prehistoric predators. Its intricate details and natural texture while preserved in the original host rock make it a prized addition for collectors of fossils and ancient artifacts.
Canis dirus teilhardi were one of the largest subspecies of the dire wolf or Canis dirus: apex predators of the Pleistocene epoch that roamed vast territories. These prehistoric wolves were larger and more robust than modern wolves, known for their powerful jaws and ability to hunt large prey. Fossilized remains like this provide invaluable insights into their behavior and adaptations, making them highly sought after by paleontology enthusiasts.
