Pool Man Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi all, I just found this vert in my late Pliocene formation and never seen one like this. I'm pretty sure its a marine deposit. I also found this tooth near by, seems like a porpoise tooth maybe? Also found another Meg nearby Thanks! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pool Man Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 Yeah, I'm loving this area. And trust me,I do the Meg dance on every one I find,lol. I am paying for it in blood though, this shell layer is evil on my hands. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obsessed1 Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Congrats on some great finds!! Thats a sweet Meg. I believe the vert is a cervical vert of a juvenile whale. As for the other tooth I'm not sure. But all of the porpiose teeth I have found have had solid roots not hollow as that one appears to be. Whatever it is it is a awesome tooth! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
