I’m almost certain this is not a fossil, but didn’t know where else to go. My buddy found this tooth/tusk in his attic and I’ve been having a tough time telling for certain what it is. No idea where it was found. Sperm whale was what first came to mind, but I don’t see a very clear boundary between the crown and the root. Doesn’t seem to match smilodon, walrus, boar, or any other similar possibilities that came to mind. Does anybody more familiar with this type of stuff have any idea what we’re looking at? He confirmed that it’s hollow which is another check in the sperm whale box but I’m just not sure. Unfortunately that’s all the info I have. Thanks in advance!

Just went on a trip to Greens Mill Run yesterday and recovered this tooth. Is it crocodilian or a mosasaur tooth? Thanks!

I thought this looked like a tooth crown, but there is nothing but the crown if that is what it is. Might well be something else. Found on a beach near Fort Pierce. About 3/4 inches square. Not so high. Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, Been going through other teeth online other than sucho teeth as well and found this carch tooth with root. Personally, looks alright but would like some expert opinions on this specimen as well please. Thanks!
-
Only other info I know is it's supposedly from Liberty County, Judith River Formation. About 2" long. Doesn't look like a carch tooth so I'm hoping it's actually T-rex.

Found this tooth on a beach near Fort Pierce Florida. It is almost exactly one inch long across the crown and 3/8 inch wide. The width is very irregular as you can see. Thanks for your help.

So if any one knows anything about these fossils that'd be a great help! First 6 pictures are from the riverbed and the last two are from the beach in Lübeck,Germany Thanks!- 3 replies

Hello, I just found this shark tooth in my collection. Unfortunately I don't know anything about fossil shark teeth, so I wanted to ask you for help. The tooth measures about 38mm on the longest side, but I don't know where the tooth was found. At the first look, it looks like a Mako shark tooth to me, but what species? I only know the modern ones... Maybe you can help me. Thank you in advance and best regards from Germany

Hey everyone. I found these in a creek while traveling around Ohio. The areas are known for fossils, but I can't tell if these are actually teeth or if they are just some kind of rock formation. Any insight would be much appreciated.

Hi guys, just stumbled on these teeth from a fossil shop’s website. Never bought from them so not sure on their reliability/ reputation for ID-ing teeth. Im not really familiar with Sucho teeth either. Was wondering if you guys can help me out however, the website only provides this side of the teeth so I emailed them asking if they can provide more. But at the moment, just this unfortunately. Location also says Gadoufaoua, Niger. Thanks in advance!

I found this fossilized tooth in in Sarasota Florida in the sand of a man made freshwater river, I'm pretty sure the sand itself is natural though, but I'm wondering what creature this might belong to

Hello once again! Here’s a find I’m particularly excited about, a new tooth! I found it while perusing gravel banks at Ramenessin. It’s tiny! 1 cm at the most. It does have striations, though they were difficult to capture with my camera. It’s also split in half. One carinae as well. I’m hoping this is of the marine reptile variety, guessing croc due to the size. I dabbled with the idea of pachyrhizodus as well, although I think the striations rule that out? Any insight is much appreciated, eager to ID this one!

Hi, I don't think this is a fossil looks like some kind of tooth to me but could be wrong, searched the internet but couldn't find anything like it! Could anyone help identify what it is? I found it in Lyme Regis yesterday. Thanks!

Hi all, I run a rock and fossil shop in the UK and I had a customer come in and tell me about finding a tooth on holiday in the Isle of Wight in the 1970's he has now emailed me a few pictures over, I was wondering if anyone could help me to help him? I am inclined to think it is flint but I don't want to say that yet as he has fond memories of finding it and its not nice to squash them. So any pointers would be great. He found it in Alum bay

Initially I thought it was a mastodon tooth because several have been found here, but it doesn't match any images I've found online.

Is Fossil excavation Legal? / Is obtaining Fossils Legal?
Phos_01 posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Hello everyone, I have just discovered this Forum, and I have to say it looks amazing! I feel like I've come to the right place, it has everything regarding Fossils and knowledge of people. I hope to find some additional Fossils here for my collection I have just a few questions: Is it actually legal to dig up Dinosaur Fossils? Im just wondering as an example, if you dig up a Triceratops in Canada, or a Tyrannosaur Rex in the States (what would be awesome) is this allowed to search/dig for them? Can you just visit a digging site and start on your own, how does it work? And my next question, if you would be lucky enough to find a Dinosaur Fossil, can you keep it? Or is it illegal to keep the Fossils, and are they curtesy of the Country? Perhaps the laws are different in each country but still. I have been told that it's impossible for example to get a Velociraptor, due to the fact that it's found it China, and the laws are extremely strict in Fossils shipping. Or another example, because Dinosaurs are found in all parts of the world, lets say you find a Mosasaurus in an unkown Fossil digging site, what do you? Perhaps these are stupid questions, but I've been wondering this for weeks now. I have started my collection, and I got some nice Megalodon Tooth from Indonesia, and some Spinosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus tooth, now these tooth are from Morocco Kem Kem region, I feel like this is the only place left out there were its somewhat legal to dig up al these treasures, and ship them to other parts of the world. But even here, I have doubts if this is Legal. They told me if they don't sell them, they would just be destroyed because of the digging mines to make fertilizer. Im just asking because it's a dream to go Dinosaur Fossil hunting one day. Thank you for your reply's! Best, Phos_01 ps. For those who are wondering, here are some pictures of my Fossils in my first Member post:
