South Carolina Creek hunting finds

Recommended Posts

Found some specimens while teeth hunting in a creek that feeds the Cooper River  in South Carolina. I think the big tooth may be great white or mako. Not sure about the smaller ones. Also found several pieces that appear to be bone. Anybody got any thoughts on what I've got?

 

*now numbered for for easier viewing.

That's going to make it easier for those who can help -- of course, that isn't me. Nice finds, though.

 

 

Mark.

 

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

I would guess c. hastalis for #1. Can't help with the others, as I'm still learning what we have here also.

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

Got a positive ID for the teeth as being mako.  Unclear if 5 and 7 are bone, but the remainder of the pieces appear to be sandstone.

4 through 10 all look like rocks to me.   :unsure:

Yeah the rest was sandstone. But three decent teeth from the middle of the forest was good enough for me.
