JBMugu Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 My wife and I both took a day off work to dig another hole in Bakersfield. Our best day yet. Felt like we did not spend more than 5 minutes without finding a tooth, big or small. Found over 200 teeth and hunted for a solid 6-7 hours. These are photos of some of the best ones we found. Front and Back: Large front seal tooth (I think), and other smaller seal teeth. Most likely from the same animal since I found them in very close proximity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
