Baby Rebbachisaurus Tooth

I recently purchased this baby Rebbachisaurus tooth. It's the smallest one I own at 14 mm. I thought I would contrast it next to the two largest teeth I have at 3 inches.

Very cool. I had never heard of this dinosaur before, so I got the chance to learn something new. The teeth are nice, but not the type of teeth I would expect from a herbivore.

Them red clay piles are heaven on earth
I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt

It's a type of Diplodocoid type sauropod. Teeth are placed in front of the jaw for ease of stripping trees limbs and ferns

Baby dinosaur specimens are always overlooked and most difficult to find. Definitely cooler than adult teeth. Nice pickup.

Thanks for sharing! Those are nifty. I want one of those for my collection. Have seen them, but never jumped on it!

Sauropod teeth are very strange aren't they? It still amazes me how they just swallowed their food and didn't chew it up. And those ridiculously tiny heads!

I'm always looking for baby dinosaur teeth. They are actually very hard to find. I guess that shouldn't be a surprise given their small size. I agree with you, much cooler than adult teeth.

Beautiful tooth! Congrats! I must agree, Baby dinosaur teeth are much cooler than adult teeth. They are hard to find indeed! I bought a juvenile dinosaur tooth for my daughter for her 8th birthday on July 1st. I've had it hidden for months, and I can't wait to give it to her. :). It's the only one I've found in 5 years of collecting.
