    Description

    Orthoceras first appeared about 505 million years ago. They were marine, or sea animals similar to the modern squid. They had a shell shaped like a cone. Orthoceras were active swimmers in warm shallow seas and swam by squirting water out of the body cavity. They ate small animals and some grew to be 6 feet long. In the fossilized remains of the shell, you can often see different chambers where the animal lived. This fossil, including the matrix is about  6.5 inches in length.
