Paleoworld-101 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Congratulations buddy!!! "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...

Welsh Wizard Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Thomas Congratulations for both the find and the win. You'll have to forgive me but I don't really know anything about fossil sharks. Are these crushing teeth for breaking shells? regards Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosmoceras Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks for all of the comments. Nick, they are indeed crushing teeth for breaking shells etc. There are members here who know a lot more about Ptychodus who can give you more information on demand. I try not to think of those days when I first joined; now I call that the steep learning curve. Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
