We were a little frustrated at the lack of cool fossil and prehistoric animal posters out there, that were both scientifically accurate, but also looked good. So we recently embarked on a project to design some of our own. We started off with this cool Megalodon infographic poster which we now have avaible for sale in a 24x36" version, which would look pretty sweat hanging on your wall. We have two different styles available. Check them out. You can also find a shareable online version of these posters here.
It's always interesting to be able to show the work that goes into a well prepared fossil specimen. Actually collecting the fossils is often the easier and less time consuming part than the preparation. This is a beautiful preparation sequence of a very spiny Koneprusia trilobite quarried near Foum Zguid, Morocco. Despite being only about an inch and a half in length, nearly 130 hours of work went into this specimen under microscope.
Trilobites
are an extinct marine animal that dominated Earth's oceans for 270 million years long before the first dinosaurs. There were over 25k known types some of them with very ornate shells covered in spines. This huge variety and their alien looking appearance makes them very appealing to collectors. We have a huge variety of trilobite fossils for sale ranging from inexpensive, common species to amazing museum quality specimens and everything in between. Buy fossils from us knowing you are getting authentic specimens, at the best value.
The
Megalodon was a massive prehistoric shark that grew to lengths of up to 60 feet and went extinct 2.6 million years ago. It had giant teeth that could reach 7 inches in length (though only a handful have ever been found that large). For comparison the largest great white shark teeth did not reach 3 inches in length. Fossils of it's teeth can be found worldwide and are both impressive and terrifying. We have a wide selection of authentic Megalodon fossils for sale, starting around $10 which make great gifts, to collector quality teeth priced at $1,000+.
We
have a wide selection of authentic dinosaur teeth for sale. Dinosaurs shed their teeth rapidly as they grew or they became worn and they were composed of a more solid material than bone so they tend to be much more common than complete bones. We have both affordable and premium examples of teeth from several different dinosaurs including Spinosaurus, Raptors, Triceratops, T-Rex, Edmontosaurus, as well as large prehistoric reptiles like Mosasaurus.
Fish
have been around in the fossil record for over 500 million years and are one of the most diverse animals on our planet. Fossil fish are some of the most aesthetic and collectable fossils out there. FossilEra has a selection of beautiful fish fossils for sale from the Green River Formation of Wyoming as well as several other locations around the world. Not only do these fish make for beautiful displays but they are tremendously interesting from a scientific and historical perspective.
