Gonzo22 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Hi guys! I’m new to this, but my wife and I have been shark tooth hunting for the past month thanks to “quarantine”. We have found some interesting things, but can’t seem to pin point what they are exactly. We believe some may be megalodon teeth, great white teeth, and a dugong bone. All were found at Onslow beach,NC. We appreciate your guys help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilizedJello Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 All these teeth appear to be megs to me, congrats on your finds. The middle section contains two ray related teeth and the other peice is a scute (Shell) of something that is probably known to NC. The top left looks like enamel of a meg tooth...woulda been a big boy. The bottom mid looks like it could be a rib bone. I would say cetacean as well. As for everything else including the "enamel" of the shark tooth could probably be either very worn bones or just simple odd shaped rocks. If there are two bones that are legit are the rib and the long broken slanted one. You can see the porosity in the marrow that was preserved. Although, I am not the best on IDing on this forum, im sure someone will identify the species that scute belongs to as it comes up here and there.
