A hunting partner found this one. I took the photos yesterday and will see him tomorrow. I'll get more photos. The tooth seems "odd" to me for the Peace River, I also said 'lower Mako" but without conviction. I will get side views tomorrow.

Thanks for the ID: labial to lingual curvature is the clue Just trying to learn from ID confusion on my part. This is Carcharias and I expect ID to be easy -- they have pronounced sharp cusps. It does not look to be damage that broke them off. So maybe a recessive trait or pathological. Comments?

I think the side cusps have been eroded away. From the photos it looks like a lot of wear to the root. Look closely where the enamel ends and the root begins, the transition should be smooth on an unworn tooth. Your tooth shows missing root where it transitions from the enamel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixgill pete Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I agree with Al Dente on this. For others wanting teeth identified, this is why good clear photos from all angles are important. People quickly said this tooth was a mako, without having all of the views. Once the view I requested was given it became very clear that the tooth is Carcharias. 2 Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
