Coprolite Fossils
Ancient Coprolite fossils, available in a few different sizes. These are... well, interesting objects. Coprolite fossils are fossilised pieces of poo!
They come from a range of animals - usually aquatic animals, including fish and turtles. Some larger pieces are from Dinosaurs, which I might add in a separate listing.
They tend to be quite soft fossils, likely formed in mudstone or similar - as such they do abrade quite easily and I wouldn't recommend exposing them to water in a fish tank or similar.
Obviously, Coprolites differ widely from one to the next. The photographs used are of a typical looking specimen, but there are many different kinds, shapes, and sizes.
The photographs are just intended to give you a reference to the sort of thing these are.
Our current stock comes from Madagascar, a source of a huge amount of coprolite fossils. Most of these are from marine turtles. We have seen these sold as 'dinosaur poo' but this is not a suitable name as the origins cannot be guaranteed.
