All Things Ocean Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hi all! Found this while hunting for shark teeth (posting later) - looks like either a tooth or tusk or....? It bears noting this was found on a man-made island from dredge from the savannah river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Welcome to TFF! I am not sure but it maybe a whale tooth. @Boesse may know more. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Laditz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Think ynot might be right. Thought tusk at first, but the more i look at it whale tooth seems like the better option. Might be my eyes playing tricks on me, but started seeing some possible growth lines on the second picture.. Let's see what the experts say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boesse Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I think I saw this on facebook - certainly a very waterworn sperm whale tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
