We also have Allosaurus teeth, claws, skull, and complete skeleton available.
Brontopodus
This natural cast of a late Jurassic sauropod is named Brontopodus, meaning track of a brontosaur. The animal was probably about 10 feet tall at the hip and 30 – 50 feet long. Natural casts, which show a track in a negative aspect, are like a replica of an actual foot. They are formed when resistant sand or other sediment fills in tracks made in softer mud or silt.

Brontotherium Track *Shows Pad Marks!
We at Taylor Made Fossils love Brontotherium, so we were excited to come across
two extremely rare footprints for sale.
Here's what we know:
"You just never know when or where you will stumble on to a great find...
Years ago, a great guy, and a friend of mine, ( Ernie Shirley ), took the journey into the great beyond that we all sooner or later will take. He had run a rock shop in Hanksville, Utah, for what seemed like forever, (50 years or so). A few months after his death, the family had an auction for the tons and tons of materials that he had purchased and collected over the years since he started. (WWII). After the auction, I noticed a bunch of buckets that the auctioneer had left out. When I inquired about them, he told me there was nothing of value, and if I wanted, I could give him $100.00 for the lot. Little did I know how much there was there...I made 4 truckloads back and forth to my home, over 100 miles away. A couple of these, and some other tracks were in some of the buckets. After a lot of research, I have come to the conclusion they are Brontotherium tracks from the Eocene period. Most likely from the Green River Formations. Too bad there were only 2 of these that were genuinely great tracks."
The track measures 5" long and 4 1/2" in width.
This track has 3 toes........IT SHOWS THE PAD MARKS!
Original fossil tracks like these can easily fetch $600 or more making them unobtainable to many - so we made a mold from the original fossil and are offering cast replicas here for $50

Ceratopsipes
Although horned dinosaurs like Triceratops were common at the end of the Cretaceous and have been known to science since the 1880s; their tracks, named Ceratopsipes, are surprisingly rare and were not found until the 1990s. Perhaps they didn’t walk in areas where it was easy to make tracks. These tracks come from an old clay quarry in Golden, Colorado which has recently been converted into a golf cour

Eosauropus, are probably the oldest footprints attributed to sauropodomorphs. This 210 million-year-old specimen was molded from sandstones in a dry stream bed in the remote Cimarron Valley of northern New Mexico.

Eubrontes / Grallator Track (#TMF Eub)
Eubrontes (Hitchcock, 1845) is the name of fossilized dinosaur footprints dating from the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic. They have been identified from France, Poland, Slovakia, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Australia (Queensland) and the USA. It is a junior synonym of Grallator.
Eubrontes is the name of the footprints, identified by their shape, and not of the genus or genera that made them, which is as yet unknown. They are most famous for their discovery in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts in the early 19th century. They, among other footprints, were the first known dinosaur remains to be discovered in North America, though they were initially thought to have been made by large birds by Edward Hitchcock, a professor of Amherst College. Another major find occurred at Rocky Hill, Connecticut in 1966. Nearly 600 prints are preserved there in an area now designated Dinosaur State Park.
Eubrontes prints. Dinosaur State Park and Arboretum
In the early 1970s, a fiberglass cast of an Eubrontes giganteus footprint was made by Paul E. Olsen, then 14 years old, and his friend. It was then sent to President Richard Nixon to get his support for registering the Riker Hill Fossil Site in Roseland, New Jersey as a National Natural Landmark.
A typical Eubrontes print is from 25 –50 cm long, with three toes that terminate in sharp claws. It belongs to a biped that must have been over one meter high at the hip and from 5–6 meters long. E. Colbert and others supposed that a large heavy carnivore like Teratosaurus (then considered to be a dinosaur) made the track, but a possible candidate is Dilophosaurus, a large theropod related to Coelophysis, or a close relative. However, no Dilophosaurus fossil material is associated with Eubrontes tracks.
Eubrontes is the state fossil of Connecticut. The type species is Eubrontes giganteus. The French footprint has been called Eubrontes veillonensis. The name means 'true thunder,' probably referring to the supposed weight of the animal impacting on the ground.
A trackway attributed to the ichnogenus Eubrontes had a missing second digit on the right foot. The animal could have either lost the toe due to injury or it was malformed
This is a cast of an unusual Eubrontes (a carnivorous dinosaur) footprint-- it is unusual for having four toe prints, rather than the usual three toe prints most commonly found.
The cast of this specimen is also notable because it is not an imprint of a dino foot, but an "out-print". The actual fossil footprint itself was found in Colorado sometime in the mid-1990s, which was when this cast was made. The other footprints from this animal in the trackway all had four toes as well, which meant it was either a lame animal, or was born with an extra toe.
The full piece measures about 18 1/2 inches across, about 11 inches in width, by 1 1/2 inches thick.
The footprint itself measures about 8 inches heel-to-toe and is 12 inches across.

*Grallator is an ichnogenus representative of a bipedal theropod dinosaur that roamed the supercontinent Pangea in the Late Triassic and the Early Jurassic. The trackmaker likely resembled Coelophysis. The name Grallator translates into "stilt walker", although the actual length of its legs is unknown because the exact species of dinosaur that made the tracks have not been identified. The prefix "Grallae" refers to the group of birds that includes storks and herons. These footprints were given this name by their discoverer, Edward Hitchcock, in 1858.
This lovely trackway shows a plethora of Therapod Footprints, known as Grallator Tracks. The dinosaur that made them is believed to Be Podokesaurus, the Eastern variant of Coelophysis. This was collected in the Jurassic Sediments of Western Massachusetts. This one has footprints on both sides, and one side also has a fossil tree stem.
The tracks are polished to bring out their visibility
These Cretaceous tracks were found in a rock outcrop in a garden at a mining village in central China. The track with the long heel is named Hunanpus (meaning track from Hunan Province). The other two tracks are named Xianxigpus (meaning track from Xianxi, the western part of Hunan Province). All of these tracks were made by emu-sized theropod dinosaurs.
