Species : Allosaurus fragilis

Species description : Largest Therapod Meat Eating Jurassic dinosaur ever-often reaching 35 feet long, as long as a bus. Its Large Skull per body size makes it special but a Hand Claw is even more inspiring. The skull with a moveable joint allowed it to bite huge chunks to devour its prey .

It did hunt in groups and was the greatest hunter in dinosaur world at least at this time frame that had speed, teamwork, and claws that were much better than TREX . It had a S-shaped bulldog neck with powerful 3 claws -sometimes a vestigual one also that could tear any dinosaur wide open. The teeth could rejuvenate but these claws could not. It weighed 2 tons also.

Geological Period Late Jurassic 172-140 MYA

Item Location: Como Bluff or Bone Cabin Quarry, Wyoming ?   This was an old collection piece of a top collector who passed, but we know these 2 areas are only ones known with dark brown color -all others dark black

Item Description: 1-10 rating  10  Top Quality  5.5 “ Large Foot Claw  . Quality on this claw is exceptional  I can’t see any resto on this . It was purchased with the Monster Hand Killer Claw From an old collection. I did not prep this in any way as it came as is  . It looks amazing to me.   You can see the great lines of the bone and grooves all natural easily.  If you ever see any -the tips are restored but not this one.
