拍品专文

Retaining their broad ovoid shape, these dinosaur eggs belong to the sauropod family. On account of their large size they are likely Sauropod eggs, the adults of which were among the largest four-legged herbivores to roam the earth. Once hatched and fully grown, a they could grow as long as 85 feet with a long neck and tail.
