PFOOLEY Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Wow! This is awesome. I find shark teeth while searching shaley slopes for ammonites...but this find is really something special. I am still trying to find some time to get back out to the site and do a bit more poking around with fresh eyes and a sift. The plan is to measure, record and place the teeth in a plausible order. After I photograph the tooth set, it will make its way to the NMMNHS collections. I am hoping it will make an appearance in a bulletin, as this is the first associated Ptychodus tooth set from New Mexico. Thank you all for voting this specimen as FOTM...I think it is very deserving and I am delighted that you feel the same. I will post any updates regarding the tooth set (as well as new adventures) in its discovery thread, Prospecting the San Juan Basin. Can't wait to see what October brings... 6 "I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in.
