The Poozeum is a museum in Williams, Arizona, devoted to coprolites, or fossilised faeces. It was founded in 2014 as a website and resource centre by George Frandsen, who owns the world's largest collection of coprolites; pieces from that collection formed a travelling exhibition before the museum opened premises of its own in 2024. The Poozeum holds 8,000 coprolites, among them Barnum, the largest coprolite from a carnivore yet discovered, a specimen of 20.5 pounds believed to have come from a Tyrannosaurus rex.
