paulyb135 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 My new Suchomimus tooth has perhaps taken over as my favourite tooth. I personally haven’t seen one in this colour and condition elsewhere and am fortunate to own it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Canadian tyrannosaur is rare and the rest of your Kem Kem teeth are amazing 1 Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors!

Paleoworld-101 Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 Great to see that this topic is still going. I can now add a tyrannosaurid tooth that i found last year inside Dinosaur Provincial Park, from the Dinosaur Park Formation (Campanian) of Alberta, Canada. This was such a surprise to find. It is just gorgeous! I handed it in to the visitors centre staff (as the park is a protected world heritage site) and it's probably now on display there. Measures 5.1 cm long. Belongs to either Gorgosaurus or Daspletosaurus. 4 "In Africa, one can't help becoming caught up in the spine-chilling excitement of the hunt. Perhaps, it has something to do with a memory of a time gone by, when we were the prey, and our nights were filled with darkness..." -Eternal Enemies: Lions And Hyenas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinosaur man Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 On 2014-08-13 at 9:36 PM, Troodon said: I have a lot of favorite dinosaur teeth and selecting one was not easy. The one I chose is from a baby T rex, its a fully rooted posterior tooth. The ID was done by Pete Larsen and Robert Bakker. The tooth is 1 1/8" long and collected in Garfield County, Montana in 2012. Hi Troodon I just seen a this post and have seen some teeth like this shape from Alberta what do you call these teeth an what are they used for for the Tyrannosaur ? Thanks!! Ps: Awesome tooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anomotodon Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Decided to show some of my recent additions Not my rarest tooth, but definitely my favourite - a Diplodocoid (possibly Dicraeosaurid) tooth from Middle Jurassic of Madagascar, Isalo IIIb formation. According to the recent paper by Bindellini & Dal Sasso, 2019 and what I have seen available from that locality it is by far the rarest sauropod tooth morphotype from there. I had another tooth of this species that is now in @Jaimin013 collection, but this one is actually preserved as a part of tooth battery with remains of 4 other teeth on the back of the specimen. 4 The Tooth Fairy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomotodon Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 And one of my rarest teeth is actually not dinosaurian, but similar morphologically. It belongs to a large terrestrial crocodile Iberosuchus cf. macrodon from the Eocene of Robiac, France. It is compressed and you can see fairly large serrations meaning it's a ziphodont tooth, as in theropod dinosaurs. 3 The Tooth Fairy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also trying to learn what makes that tooth an Allosaurus versus another theropod. Never seen one that shape and size. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
