content: This specimen is a cast of a partial caudal vertebra, which was a bone in the tail of an ostrich-like reptile. This dinosaur's long tail differentiated it from the ostrich we know today. The long tail is thought to have helped with swift running. This tail bone is 1cm thick and measures 3.5cm x 1.75cm.
