Collector's Choice Baby Daspletosaur Hand Claw Dinosaur Tooth Fossil Fossils
Here is an unexpected find. It is an hand claw from a Daspletosaurus torosus. It has been identified by 4 experts as tyrannosaur and one, Initials PL, as not dromaeosaur or pterasaur. My first identification also supported Tyrannosaur. The missing proximal end make identification difficult but the acute angle, oversize shape and location where found help narrow the field. Within 1 foot of this claw was found a very large daspletosaurus tooth and one from a baby just about the size expected for a claw like this. Finding baby daspletosaur teeth next to a baby Tyrannosaur claw is a smoking gun for identification in my book.
Included with the claw is the Baby Daspletosaur tooth to help you dial in your collection of maybe the only baby Daspletosaur claw to ever be found! Any tyrannosaur finger claw is hard to come by. Size is .875 inches
No reconstruction or repair has been done.
