Hello Everyone, I haven't been out tooth hunting lately as much as I would like to, but I managed to get out for a couple of hours today. I found some great teeth and had a nice time on the water. In addition to the usual hemipristis, makos, and tiger shark teeth, I found a pair of nice little C. angustidens teeth, a blood-red enamel shell of a great white tooth, a great Parotodus benedeni, and a nice (and extremely rare) cusped thresher tooth, Trigonotodus alteri. I posted another cusped thresher found a little over a week ago by my friend at the same site, and I've been dreaming of finding one for myself, which made today's find particularly gratifying. Hope everyone's been enjoying the fair weather and finding some nice fossils! Happy hunting, SOSC Here's today's total haul- Carcharocles angustidens teeth -

Hello Everyone! I haven't been hunting (or posting) in a couple months. Works been steadily busier, and I've had significantly less free time. The other day, however, I was able to go out hunting for a couple hours with a friend of mine. Within the first 10 minutes I heard "found one!" from across the marsh. When I peered into the muddy, outstretched palm in front of me, I nearly fainted. She had found a beautiful and quite large giant cusped thresher, Trigonotodus alteri. In nearly 20 years of collecting I've never found one personally, but now I know it's at least possible. Tomorrow's my birthday...I know what I'm wishing for. One of these- Happy hunting! SOSC
