From the album: Hell Creek Formation Microsite
Gars are predatory fish, armored with diamond-shaped scales coated in a hard enamel-like substance. -
Recently I traded with another forum member, jcbshark. In exchange for my fossils he sent some gravel from his local river. This river is rich in cookie cutter shark teeth, which I am pretty sure are rare in most places. Anyway, I searched the material and found a lot of nice shark and fish teeth, including four complete cookie cutters and two crowns. I also found what looks like a piece of a ray barb. I hope you like these pictures, 'cause I had to take like a million to get these ones. at least you can see these! most of them ended up looking either like tiny smudge on the camera lens, or just solid black. Don't know why it does that. Anyway, here are the best ones. Cookie cutter shark teeth: I love that red and blue striped crown on the bottom. Ray barb: Whale shark tooth? This one was especially hard to photograph, as it is more 3D and isn't flat like most shark teeth. More pictures later! (EDIT: The pictures are being ridiculous... To view these three, you will have to check my other post.)
