Troodon Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Although far from toothy saw this from the Tyrrell and it was cool which trumps toothy "This block of sandstone contains a mass-death assemblage of 25 fossil gars. This group is unusual because each individual is preserved fully articulated in a three-dimensional belly-up death pose, indicating rapid burial after death." From Florida Museum, Smilodon (saber-tooth cat) fossils are found all around the Americas, and Smilodon fatalis is just one of the species found in Florida. This specimen was collected not far from here in the Ichetucknee River in 1957 The impressive Lower Cretaceous ceratosaur Genyodectes, one of the first large theropods discovered in Gondwana museodelaplata and first described by AS Woodward of NHM London in 1901, courtesy of the NHMdinolab The tooth-whorl of Helicoprion from Scott Persons I'll conclude these posts with this iconic photo from the AMNH, Carcharodon megalodon and an amazing 1909 image of an early reconstruction of its jaw 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miocene_Mason Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I love this! Thanks for sharing, it’s making my morning a lot more interesting! I never realized quite how theropod-like heliocoprion teeth were. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
