When you find your first symphyseal...

Hey :)

 

So I went to Antwerp the week before last week. The hunts weren't going too well and the majority of the teeth we found were broken. I was really hoping to find a complete cow shark tooth, but I was only finding pieces..

Found some nice tiger shark teeth though (besides the usual portion of C. hastalis teeth)!

We went again last week. I wasn't expecting anything (the haul from the hunt before wasn't very impressive), but apparently that's the moment you find one of the most special teeth you've ever found...

 

A symphyseal cow shark tooth! Never thought I would find one :D.

And.... A whole cowshark tooth too! The root isn't complete, but you won't hear me complain :P

So I loooooove Antwerp ;) 

Kind regards,

Moooooo! ;)

 

Cow shark teeth are cool! Nice trip! :D

 

Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.
