boof Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Found this a number of years ago on some private property along the Missouri River in southeastern South Dakota. The area has a lot of buffalo remains, and some bivalves and shark fossils. This looks like nothing else I've seen before, and I believe it's a shark tooth. Is this a shark tooth? If so, do you know what kind? It's about the exact size of a camera SD card, or slightly bigger than a quarter. The image shows it from three different angles. Thanks for your help!

ynot Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Welcome to TFF! Sorry but it is not a shark tooth. Looks like a very worn and stream polished bone fragment to Me.

SailingAlongToo Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I agree, well worn, stream polished bone fragment. Keep looking though! You will eventually find something good.
