patrickhudson Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Milk river Judith river formation in Montana. It’s a lot bigger than our other trex teeth from the area, so just seeing what you guys think. It’s around 3” but I haven’t measured yet. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Its an indeterminate tyrannosaurid tooth. The bottom portion of the tooth below the serrations is a portion of the root. So 3" includes the crown and root. Nice find. FYI Trex teeth are not found in JRF deposits 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praefectus Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Nice find! It must have been exciting to see a tyrannosaur tooth just poking out of the ground. I agree with Troodon, Tyrannosaurus rex is not found in the Judith River formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEP Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Are you sure you didn't just buy that and stick it in the ground for a photo op? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
