Own a real piece of Late Cretaceous history with this Authentic Hadrosaur Middle Metatarsal Fossil from Hell Creek Formation recovered from the world‑famous Hell Creek Formation of Montana. Dating to approximately 66–68 million years ago, this robust foot bone comes from one of North America’s iconic duck‑billed dinosaurs and represents a rare opportunity for collectors seeking scientifically significant material from a classic locality.
This well‑preserved metatarsal displays the characteristic cylindrical shape and dense cortical bone structure typical of hadrosaurid pedal anatomy. Specimens from the Hell Creek Formation are highly sought after due to the site’s association with legendary dinosaurs such as Edmontosaurus, Triceratops, and T. rex. Middle metatarsals are less commonly available than ribs or vertebrae, making this a standout addition to any fossil collection.
