 Hey everybody I got lucky yesterday searching the Sulphur River in Ladonia, these two teeth are shaped different than the first one I found - wondering if they are the same type of shark.

The first tooth is Squalicorax probably S. kaupi, the second Scapanorhynchus texanus.

I can't keep up with these posts as to what I have responded to and what I haven't.  I had to Google these dudes again. Hard to believe those teeth belong to sharks like that - straight up JAWS if you ask me. :) So cool!
