DatFossilBoy Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Hey guys, I received this Allosaurus tooth from the Morrisson formation in Wyoming USA. It is tiny (13mm). I was wondering if it was from a Juvenile specimen or just a small adult tooth? Is there any way of telling? Thanks for your help. Regards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Hard to say. Most likely a juvie given its size but since the crown is pristine with no wear facet or wear to the denticles it could be a unerupted tooth of an older animal. Cool tooth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
