While sorting through some of my more recent finds I came across this very small shark tooth I found. My initial thought was tiger, but it doesn’t seem to match any Galeocerdo species I know of, nor does it match P. Contortus. Any help would be appreciated! @hemipristis @Al Dente @MarcoSr

Just got 2 big modern shark teeth, but have some questions about them. 1. Is this tooth belongs to long fin mako? 2. Can we estimate the length of the shark by just measuring the tooth? (3.5cm for the tiger shark tooth and 5.7cm for the mako shark’s) If we can, How long are these two shark ? 3. Can they grow even bigger?

Had a big rain and a major windstorm (lost power a couple of hours), even though the wind was from the south (and I much prefer winter north winds for my beach) had to check. A bit disappointing, tooth-wise although I did find a mako and a big shrimp coprolite burrow, and five small teeth (and some old pottery shards). Tried the creek at an old spot, where I hadn't had much recent luck, but the rain had deposited teeth in one spot and weakened the bank in another where I dug around and found some teeth but mostly bone bits and a few interesting steinkerns (with some glossy surfaces, one an obvious snail shell, another with shrimp coprolites.) Found one ALMOST complete cowshark tooth, four angel shark teeth and a bunch of drum 'teeth' and several sandshark teeth, plus four verts and a lot of skate teeth, most broken. Better than usual hunting. First scan is of the bigger stuff (not counting bones or shells, who asked that I pick up some for her kids): the cow shark, mako, a lemon(?) and tiger shark, plus a weird concretion, a Tilly bone and two vertebra, the top one with an odd loop. For the mantis shrimp coprolites, notice they tend to be thicker in the burrow than in the steinkern below.
