Mammal Fossils

Our range of fossilised mammal bones from throughout history.

The oldest known mammal fossil ever found is around 225 million years old – but many are much more recent, of course.

There are obviously some mammal fossils that are more popular than others.

We can’t all have rhinoceras or mammoth jaws sitting on our shelves – and we wouldn’t all necessarily be interested either!

There are a wide range of mammal fossils available online – obviously, they vary pretty wildly based on where you’re looking.

From the UK, we often find mammoth and rhinoceras teeth and bones, deer, elk, horse, and bos bones, which sometimes wash up along the coastline, and are sometimes found during dredging on the Dogger Bank area.

Oreodont (a pig or boar like mammal) teeth and jaws are popular online and found quite widely in parts of the USA, as are deer, horse, rat, tapir, and bison fossils.

Indonesia produces a huge amount of fossil material nowadays – probably the best known are the stegodon teeth, tusks, and jaws from around the Solo River, Java.

Cave bears are found in a range of locations Europe wide, especially in Romania – although I have had fossil bear material from other locales, even from the UK.

 

Mammoth bones, teeth, and hair are being found more and more frequently from melting permafrost in the north, particularly in Canada, Alaska and Russia.
