fish² Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I mainly joined this forum for answers about this tooth that was found washed up on the shore of New Smyrna Beach in Florida. I barely know anything about shark teeth and was wondering if it would be possible for someone on here to tell me the type of shark this tooth belongs to, how old it may be, and even if it is truly fossilized just from the photo.

Al Dente Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 It’s a tiger shark tooth, Galeocerdo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
