Rare Sauropod Dinosaur Claw. Bothriospondylus is a rare 150 million year old sauropod that was one of the very first dinosaurs discovered in 1875 by Richard Own in the Majunga Basin of Madagascar. Even though it was discovered in 1875, only a few bones, teeth and a few claws have been found from this 60-70 foot long necked sauropod. This rare 5 inch long (around the curve) 2 inch wide complete rear foot claw is complete except for a small one inch area in the front of the claw that has some restoration. Bothriospondylus is mostly known from its pencil shaped teeth with are far more common than the rare foot claws which are only found on three toes of the back feet. Housed in a 8 x 6" Ryker mount. $1,100 - 1,500
