butchndad Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Hello all i believe these are both mosasaur teeth but wanted confirmation by folks with much more knowledge. The bigger of the two is 7/8 inches long thank you for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Yes, the cutting edge seems to be clear on both. Mosasaur, I believe. Good finds. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrehistoricWonders Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Great teeth!!! How long have you been going to big brook? I’ve gone on like six, one to two hour trips to ram brook and haven’t found any mosasaur teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve gone on like six, one to two hour trips to ram brook and haven’t found any mosasaur teeth. Keep at it. The more you go the better you chances. I found my first one with in my first 10 ten from August to November. The trip was a 30 minute drive-by when I found mine. 2-3 trips a week from December to March and I still have not found my second. It is hit and miss looking for any fossils.

I might try going to big brook in a couple weeks. Could you post a pic of your mosasaur tooth I’d love to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't hit Ram or Poricy yet would like to follow Big Brook outside the Preserve one of these days because there must be some unpicked spots although i understand there are some not so hospitable property owners so...
