No teeth,mustve fallen out before burial, but the bone is so well preserved, and has some nice sockets. The tooth gouges are pretty prominent !

Went down again this morning after more 50mph winds scouring the beaches, found a real cute juvenile Ankylosaur footcast and a large really well defined dromaeosaur footcast with long thin toes, inside toe absent owing to it being raised when the foot went down. Will post up some pic's later or tomorrow , cheers

Sounds like quite the find, for half a second I thought you were going to say you found a really well defined dromaeosaur tooth!

Fantastic! You find the coolest stuff! The jawbone alone is really neat, but the predation marks make it awesome. Thanks for sharing the photos with us. :)

Yeah that jaw is amazing!

Very obvious predation marks and it sure looks like something/s had a real good chomp on it.

Would be great if the type of dino could be narrowed down, perhaps some of the U.S. dino experts could compare this piece to the stuff from Hell Creek.

Dromie's would be quite cool, It looks like the bite force was also petty impressive as some of those gouges look deep.

I wonder how these marks compare to other theropods from that formation.... Neovenator, Allosaurids etc etc?

Really good work!

Cheers. Yes would be cool to narrow down to species. I think likely a pack of dino's of differing ages. That maybe dromaeosaur pack or Allosaur. But the adult Allosaurs leave deeper gouges, from what ive seen online.

Why so much of posts what was edited to abolish what they contained ? You don't respect the reader by making that ! fache-non-non-248932.gifD_PUNC_1.GIF

I propose that the option of edition is abolished 24 or 48 hours writting to avoid this problem. That thing is made on some forums !

Jon, thank you very much for posting the images again.

It is frustrating and more when images are removed without notice.

I don't think our current software has that option...but, I will look into it. ;)

EDIT: Done. (48 hrs.) :)
