Tooth is from an Albertosaurus sarcophagus.   Age identification is difficult because of replacement teeth but could be from somthing like a sub-adult.  Buying Canadian material requires that a disposition number be assigned to this fossil if not done already,  so that it can be legally shipped out of Alberta

Thank you for teaching. If subadult teeth aren't rare, I stay away from it.
