Ice Age Fossil Woolly Rhinoceros Molar Coelodonta Antiquitatis 2.25 Inches
This is a Woolly Rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis) Upper Molar from the Pleistocene of Siberia! This molar is great condition with full enamel and a partial root! The piece is solid with ZERO repair restoration or alteration and measures 2.258 inches (5.73 cm) across! The Woolly Rhinoceros is a species of rhinoceros that lived throughout Europe and North Asia from 3.6 million to 10,000 years ago. It was covered in a thick layer of course hair that helped protect it from the freezing temperatures of the Ice Age much like the Woolly Mammoth. Adults ranged in size from 10-12.5 feet (3-3.8 meters) in length, about 6.6 feet (2 meters) tall at the shoulder, and 4-6 thousand pounds (1800-2700 kilograms). Much like modern rhinoceroses, the woolly rhino fed on tough vegetation using its large molars. A great opportunity to own a piece of one of the most iconic Ice Age mammals without breaking the bank!
