North Sulphur River Trip - Shark Tooth

Recommended Posts

Thought I would go to the river before it got too hot later this month.  Did not have a lot of time so went to the Fossil Park north of Ladonia, TX.  I usually try and avoid the park because there is always a crowd but the river is so wide there it gives you a lot of square footage to hunt.  Shark teeth are not rare at the NSR but I had only found a few in my trips.  Mostly the skinny black variety and nothing very big.  This one was just laying there waiting to be found and made a very good photo opportunity.  Nothing else much but any slow day at the river beats any day at work!  Any thoughts on the type of shark this is from, is about 1 3/4" overall.  Thanks

Looks like an anterior Scapanorhynchus tooth.

Nice tooth. 

It is nice when they still have the roots.
