Seeing a Moroccan Cretoxyrhina is a first-timer for me :o

 

Do you know what this new site is, perhaps maybe one similar to Goulmima?

I don't know the exact site, but I know it's from a small, mostly inaccessible outcrop in Southern (Boujdour area) Morocco.

I second the first timer sentiment with this one. I had no idea they were found in Morocco. Great tooth for sure.

Thank you!  These come from a very new locality that hasn't reached the market, and I don't know if it's being collected at all anymore, either.
