Things You Didn't Know About Dinosaur Poo

By Frank Ellis


The great thing about this sort of thing is that it makes a great gift for anyone who is really into dinos and anything associated with them. You'll usually find with the paleontology enthusiast that they are apt to collect all kinds of things like this, so some dinosaur poo would make a fine addition to his or her collection. It just makes things a lot easier when you get to a holiday or a birthday and you are able to quickly make a decision rather than having to stress and worry, wondering if the recipient will even like your gift at all.

Anyone who has ever heard the word coprolite but doesn't know what it means might have assumed that it means something boring having to do with fossils and dinosaurs. In truth, it simply means fossilized dung, and this can be surprising to some. The name of this substance comes from the Greek language, and it is a combination of the words for stone and dung, so this is a very fitting name indeed.

If you explore the droppings of animals who have been gone from this world for a long time, you can discover some pretty amazing things about them. This might be unexpected at first, but not when you think about what poop is really made of. If we can see in these droppings what the animals were eating, we can find out all kinds of things about how they lived and what roles they played in the food chain and ecosystem that we only have clues as to the qualities of.

Wearing jewelry made out of the dung of prehistoric animals might not sound like the classiest thing in the world. However, there are plenty of people who love to adorn themselves with these types of fossils. You can find all kinds of earrings and necklaces to show off your paleontological enthusiasm.

You might have seen this type of thing in a museum. The great thing about finding these kinds of fossils in this setting is that there will surely be plenty of people to help explain everything you could possibly want to know about the artifact. You are also likely to see the biggest and best specimens out there.

If you want to find this kind of fossil, all you really have to do is check it out online. Most people don't have a local fossil shop to go to. Nowadays, all you have to do is run a quick search to find options from all over the world.

It is very important that you look into who you are buying from beforehand. Otherwise, you might find yourself getting scammed. It is also important to fully read the description of what you are buying to see if it specifies that it is a fossil or if it merely a gag gift.

The great thing about this is it comes in many different sizes. This can help give you an idea of the size of some of the dinos. It is nice that you can just have a small piece of poo instead of a massive one that takes up your whole display cabinet.
