Dracorex_hogwartsia Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixgill pete Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 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. Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 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.It's a type of Diplodocoid type sauropod. Teeth are placed in front of the jaw for ease of stripping trees limbs and ferns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Baby dinosaur specimens are always overlooked and most difficult to find. Definitely cooler than adult teeth. Nice pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDudeCO Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Thanks for sharing! Those are nifty. I want one of those for my collection. Have seen them, but never jumped on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracorex_hogwartsia Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 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. 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! Baby dinosaur specimens are always overlooked and most difficult to find. Definitely cooler than adult teeth. Nice pickup. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan from PA Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
