Fossilised Dino poo, known as Coprolite, forms when a dinosaur’s droppings are rapidly buried by sediment such as mud, sand, or ash. This burial protects the poop from decomposing. Over millions of years, minerals like silica or calcite slowly seep into the organic material and replace it! As the original waste breaks down, it is gradually transformed into solid rock while still retaining its shape and sometimes even traces of what the dinosaur ate. This is how something as fragile as poo can survive for millions of years and become a fossil🦖
-This frame does not come with a glass barrier, as the poop is too large
