description |
|
What can one say about this magnificent and extremely well preserved paddle humerus from this marine reptile. These marine reptiles were fast swimmers using their paddles to propell and steer themselves along. The specimen has been prepared however, this does not detract from the outstanding quality. Also attached to the humerus is a lovely Oyster shell, which only adds extra interest to this piece. |
