Dinosaur Poop - Is it real?

Not only is dinosaur poop real, it is often made into jewelry.

Petrified or fossilized dinosaur poop is called

coprolite.

My friend's visitors came down to Tucson from Idaho to the famed Gem Show. Over a glass of wine they brought out a piece of coprolite and the jewelry that had been made out of it.

I knew that jewelry could be made out of unusual

things, because I have a lovely piece made from

petrified Hearts of Palm. But poop! and Dinosaur poop?

Checked it out on Google and Google Images

and yep, it is real.

Want to be the first of your girlfriends to

have a genuine piece of dinosaur poop

(coprolite) jewelry?
