Spinosaurus Jaw Piece with Tooth


Recommended Posts

I saw this item for sale, said to be a Spinosaurus jaw fragment with an associated tooth glued on. Is it a composite, and does it belong to Spinosaurus?

Unfortunately a ugly composite of sorts.   Jaw bone not dinosaurian and not sure what to make of that "tooth" and what been done to it.   Walk away.

That's about what I thought. I'm always suspicious now of anything Spinosaur-related. And you'd think that it would be easier to just use a real tooth than poorly fabricate one, but I suppose that would cut into profits!

That's part of a lower jaw of a big croc. Not a bad piece. But the tooth does not belong with it.

That's cool.
