Give Someone You Love The Gift Of Dinosaur Poo

By Frank Ellis


This is something that many people would love to have as a stocking stuffer or for their next birthday. Dinosaur poo might sound like an odd gift to give, but it makes a lot of sense when you think about those people who are really into dinosaurs. If there is a physical object that you can hold in your hands that actually came from one of these famous creatures, it can be an amazing experience for anyone who has been dreaming about them their whole life.

Anyone who has ever heard the word coprolite but doesn't know what it means might have assumed that it means something boring having to do with fossils and dinosaurs. In truth, it simply means fossilized dung, and this can be surprising to some. The name of this substance comes from the Greek language, and it is a combination of the words for stone and dung, so this is a very fitting name indeed.

If you explore the droppings of animals who have been gone from this world for a long time, you can discover some pretty amazing things about them. This might be unexpected at first, but not when you think about what poop is really made of. If we can see in these droppings what the animals were eating, we can find out all kinds of things about how they lived and what roles they played in the food chain and ecosystem that we only have clues as to the qualities of.

Wearing jewelry made out of the dung of prehistoric animals might not sound like the classiest thing in the world. However, there are plenty of people who love to adorn themselves with these types of fossils. You can find all kinds of earrings and necklaces to show off your paleontological enthusiasm.

Many people choose to take a trip to the museum in order to see this type of thing. This is where you will find the biggest and best of the specimens. You will also have the benefit of having someone knowledgeable and enthusiastic there to explain the answers to any questions you might have.

This is a great thing to shop for online because you can find the best options out there that are perfect for what you're looking for. There are plenty of coprolites for sale, but it definitely takes some searching to hunt it down. If you just shop around locally, depending on where you live, people are not likely to even have a clue what you are talking about.

It is very important that you look into who you are buying from beforehand. Otherwise, you might find yourself getting scammed. It is also important to fully read the description of what you are buying to see if it specifies that it is a fossil or if it merely a gag gift.

You might be worried that this dino poop will take up the whole living room. Luckily, this is something that comes in all sizes. There is sure to be a fossil perfect for your shelf.
