Heres our latest find from a trip to Venice Beach Florida, nothing huge but a nice selection.

We collect these tiny teeth at night . We lay on our stomachs with flash lights to find them . The first time I found them was by accident . We were laying out on the chalk gullies looking at the stars . I rolled over and looked at the chalk with my flash light . Tiny fossils appeared everywhere . Until that night only 2 pseudocorax teeth were in the museum collection . I found 14 that night . I donated all of them to the museum . I recently found these the same way . "NOTE" Collected in the Cretaceous Mooresville Chalk Formation .

I found some local Charleston SC creeks and a tidal river that should produce some sharks teeth if anyone is interested in a dig. Bring whatever you like. I will wear hip waders, carry a screen sifter and hand scoop

Hello, My name is Gavin and I'm from Iowa. I love to rock hunt and look for fossils wherever I travel. As I was looking through this forum, I discovered that I could not see pics that people were posting. I will be traveling to the Tampa bay area of Florida in March and am looking for great places to find agatized coral and sharks teeth. Also, I will be driving through northern Florida, Southern Georgia. If anyone would have some helpful hints on where to go, I would appreciate it. Thanks, Gavin

Hi Everyone! I am so excited to discover this fabulous forum. I have been an avid sharks' tooth hunter my entire life... I grew up in a family that planned vacations around sharks' teeth and loved nothing more than hunting for arrowheads. I love a treasure hunt of all kinds, actually... metal detecting, shell seeking, etc. We live in Wilmington, NC. There happens to be a tropical storm / hurricane overhead right now, and we are getting up at 5 a.m. to drive to nearby North Topsail to see if the sea kicked up some teeth. It should be low tide and clear skies by then. My dream is to move to Sanibel, FL, where we recently spent a few months. The shell hunting is amazing. (Spent lots of time making sure the tourists did not take the live shells, though!) We have also lived in Ponte Vedra, FL, where the tooth hunting is good. Spent time in Venice, FL and have an upcoming trip planned to Manasota Key. That said... Our family would LOVE to sign up for some fossil hunting trips!! We have kids ages 11 and 13. Would also be interested in meeting up with any fellow fossil hunters. Have never been to Aurora! Anybody know of a good trip for us to plug into? Also - what are the BEST EVER sharks' tooth locations? So interested to know!! Even overseas! Happy to be here and connect with all of you fossil lovers! Loulie

left at 4am this morning for our destination. we arrive 3 hrs later at ant hill. the sun was up and though the weather app said partially cloudy, there was hardly a cloud in the sky. climbed the hill and set up shop in a random pit and went to work. we didn't really know what we were doing or what to look for. we could see pick marks where others had previously dug and i quickly understood why using one was a good idea. man, that stuff was tough! i didn't bring a pick so we were limited to just the loose stuff. we made due and scored some teeth. we found mostly micros and partials but we did end up with a few nicer models, some skate/ray teeth (i think), and cool pieces of bone. oh i also found what i thought might be a mammal tooth. its about 3 inches long, slightly curved, and looks like a smaller version of some sort of whale or dolphin tooth. i accidentally broke it and the inside was black. does anyone know if mammal teeth that size have been found in the area? i'll try to post pics of it later as i'm having trouble loading the files which are apparently too large (any help would be appreciated)

Here are just a few of my finds over the last month in Sherman,Tx. My son and I have really enjoyed getting dirty. We have found tons but these are some of our best. Not bad for beginners?

Venice Beach, Fl Has Far More Than Just Sharks Teeth
wunderkammer posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
I went to Venice beach expecting to only find Fossil sharks teeth(which seems kinda silly now) but when I got there I found an array of other fossils like petrified wood, sting ray barbs and teeth, turtle shell pieces, etc. It's not very crowded on the week days and there's tons of wildlife too, so I'd certainly recommend taking a trip there -

Hi All, Just getting back to fossiling after a 40 year break. Used to go collecting as a kid in upstate New York. Started collecting with my daughter and she's nuts about shharks teeth, obsessed about finding a Meg. We have gone collecting oin the Peace riiver in central Florida and looked in Western MD. Going out to Utah this August, any suggestions for Utah? Peter

Hi there, Me and my family are going to Cape Town on the 1st of April and plan to have about 10 days here. We all love fossils and have done a bit of hunting in England and found the odd Ammonites, I have seen that cape town has a lot of sharks, I just wanted to see if anyone knows of somewhere to find some sharks teeth on the beaches around cape town (we dont mind traveling a bit). Any tips of finding them is much appreciated. Thanks Mark
