any shark teeth, modern or fossil, to be found in Cape Ann, Mass?
butchndad posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
planning a trip for the weekend to Cape Ann, Massachusetts (Gloucester-Rockport). I understand that fossil shark teeth are not going to be found how about modern shark teeth? or anything else interesting? (Other than the world's best fried clams) ps. 2 weeks later a weekend in Cape Cod which according to previous posts on TFF is also devoid of fossil shark teeth- 11 replies

For the first time in the last 3 months I will not be spending time in Big Brook. Went up to Gloucester Mass. with my wife, daughter and Bo my Aussie and Gracie my Golden. My pre-trip research quickly told me the area is NOT fossilicious but I thought maybe I had a prayer of finding a modern shark tooth. Wife and kid had no interest in helping so I had to enlist the dogs with promises of extra treats. Well, they had a great time on the beach but we’re of no help whatsoever. Best I could come up with was four fish (cod?) verts, a tiny sand dollar and sea urchin. I did however find the world epicenter for fried clams in Ipswich and Essex so a successful trip in my book. In two weeks we (just me and the wife) will be up in equally non fossilicious Cape Cod where the modern shark tooth hunt will resume
