No, not the Chevrolet I drove in College.  A gallery in Beverly Hills, California will auction off a 101.5-centimeter long specimen of fossilized ancient excrement, known in scientific circles as  “coprolite”.  It could be up to 33 million years old.  But it’s still brown.

The IM Chait Gallery says the “eye-watering” piece of crap “boasts a wonderfully even, pale brown-yellow coloring and terrifically detailed texture to the heavily botryoidal surface across the whole of its immense length”.  They don’t know what kind of animal might have left it behind for the ages, but the gallery claims “it is nonetheless a highly evocative specimen of unprecedented size, presented in four sections, each with a heavy black marble custom base”. 

33 million years ago would make it likely the exhaust of an ancient mammal.  So, perhaps it was left for the ages by an Arsinoitherium or a Dorudon who pooped in surprise as the Eocone Epoch turned into the Oligocene Epoch.  But I digress.

They hope it will sell for US $10,000.  There are people (with issues) who collect this crap.  Chait has previously sold Dinosaur coprolites for $6,000.  But this is by far the longest and most intact.
