Without proper digestive systems, many dinosaurs would ingest stones to aid the breakdown of food in their gut. Known scientifically as gastroliths, the dinosaurs would eventually pass these stones, which would then become fossilized.

This specimen is a 2.397" dinosaur gastrolith from the Morrison Formation in Colorado. It ships in a protective carton, ready for display right out of the box. A specimen card that doubles as a certificate of authenticity is included.

Dino Digestion

Also known as gut or gizzard stones, gastroliths are common digestive aids among amphibians, reptiles, birds, and dinosaurs. Their primary function is to help grind food matter.

In dinosaurs, gastroliths are usually associated with sauropods, though they have also been discovered in ornithomimids, oviraptors, and some ornithischians. This Jurassic period gastrolith comes from the Morrison Formation in Colorado.

Each of these showcase gastroliths is a one-of-a-kind trace fossil listed by size. They ship in a sturdy carton and include a small information card about the specimen.
