Description:

Partial Dinosaur Foot. This partial foot belongs to 8 to 13 foot long herbivorous dinosaur that weighed between 450-650 pounds, named Thescelosaurus. Thescelosaurus was one of the very last dinosaurs alive at the end of the Cretaceous. It was bipedal with a four toed foot. What makes this lot interesting is that all of the bones were found in the same dig in the 67 million year old Hell Creek Formation of Montana and belong to the same dinosaur, not a composite. The partial foot consists of parts of all four claws and 6 of the toe phalanges. All four claws would be about one inch long with two of the claws virtually complete except for the ends of the tips and the other two being partials. One toe is four inches long and complete with the best claw and three complete phalanges. The other three phalanges are partial. Thescelosaurus was a hypsilophodont dinosaur that is famous for the excellently preserved specimen found in 1993 in South Dakota that had a well preserved heart. Preserved in a 8 x 6.5 inch Riker Mount.
