Lovelee Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I was rock hunting while cleaning up the garbage on the shore of Ohio river and I found this. It resembles a petrified tooth of some sort. Did I find a rock or is it indeed a tooth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I can't see too clearly, but it looks like a misleadingly shaped rock to me. 3 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I have to agree - suggestively shaped rock. No enamel present, and no root/bone texture.

minnbuckeye Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Welcome to the forum. I am in total agreement that this is not a tooth. With that said, there is a member that hunts a little east of you Who does find primative shark and fish teeth. I believe it is in the mudstones of the Brush creek marine zones. These teeth look nothing like the "shark teeth" that your rock mimics. This layer might be in your vicinity. I just wish I could remember who posts about this.

Lovelee Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 I also hunt in brush creek! I have a lot of petrified wood from there... but I wasn’t thinking it’s a shark tooth more of a gator lol.. but I guess it’s just a rock... the top of it was why I thought it was a tooth of some sort... it was like it had the root or whatever... would this forum be interested in seeing the wood that dinosaurs prolly ##### on? I have tons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tons I find it hard to imagine a dinosaur #####ing on a tree, but I'd nevertheless be interested to see a few pounds of it. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
