Hi All, Had some time off from work this past Friday, and decided to take a drive out to Big Brook to do some hunting. Had a pretty successful outing, finding some of the biggest shark teeth (Goblin) I've found in my handful of visits to the Brook. Would have been very happy to leave with just those few pieces. The best find of the day was a piece of a Mastodon tooth. I'm still learning, and at first didn't realize what I had, thinking it may be part of a turtle scute (still new to all of this). Thanks to a couple members of the "Fossils and Native American Artifacts (NJ and surrounding areas)" Facebook group, they were able to pin an ID. Compared it to some photos of other examples and it definitley looks like Mastodon. Totally blown away by this find!! Had a few other nice pieces photgraphed below. Last piece of the day was what appears to be a rib bone. Could very well be modern White Tail Deer, as the brook is rich an iron, and can stain the bone pretty quickly. I found the Goblin Shark teeth in the same deposit, but also found a partial of a more modern deer jaw. Jaw was partially white and brown (didn't save as I could tell it was modern). In any case, not sure if it's anything but a modern deer rib. Feedback good or bad is appreciated. Thanks! Calm day @ the Brook. Couple sifts in, and pulled this tooth. Good start!

What’s up! I’ve been bored lately and just wanted to play with some of the crows I’ve found. These have all been found on the east coast of North Carolina, in creeks and on beaches. So here you go, -My three prettiest, not the biggest crow shark teeth in the world, but in my opinion, I have not seen much crows with better colors than these 3. ( if these teeth aren’t in order, I’m sorry I’m new to this, the three I’m taking about are the yellowish tooth, orange, and blue one that’s in the middle). So those out of the way, here are some of my biggest, these are all over 1 1/10, the biggest hitting 1 2/8 ( almost 1 3/8), the biggest one is the one in the bottom middle with the slight pathology, (and top left in my palm). The three biggest in my palm, as scale. I hope y’all like this, i love my crow shark collection that I feel gets really overviewed by the big guys.
