Hello. I have been working on properly cataloguing my old fossil material and was wondering if anyone might have any ideas about the origin of these two fossils from Point A Dam near Andalusia, AL. I know they don’t have many descriptive features but figured I might try. Based on shape, I think 1 might be part of a ray mouth plate, lost on 2 completely. Also, my apologies about the image quality; hopefully getting a phone with a better camera soon. Thanks! 1: 2:

Took my shark obsessed 8 year old to Point A Dam for the first time yesterday! The water level was fairly high so we hung out in the first bend but he had a blast! He found 388 items (whole and pieces) total. We know what the more common ones are (lemon, tiger shark, stingray mouth plate bits, some bull possibly) but there a few were unfamiliar with! I'm guessing picture #6 is nurse shark? #7 honeycomb coral? #8 tip of a coral? and I dont have a guess of what the other items are.

Hello! I found these two teeth while fossil hunting at Point A Dam in Andalusia, AL and noticed that at least one appeared to be more reptilian than shark. Sizes are ~1 cm each Though it was hard to get a decent image, this tooth is extremely flat. This tooth is very round, which led me to believe it may not be a shark’s tooth. Thank you for your time!

I want to take a friend over to the dam but last time I went, which was maybe a couple years ago, the road down was extremely rough and in bad shape for a car. Has anyone been this year that can tell me the state of the road that takes you into the little parking area? Many thanks

Hello! I'm new and see there is so much to learn. Got the bug a month ago when I found some shark teeth on the Atlantic coast and couldn't wait to try again. Now I'm stuck...will post for help

I finally made it to Point A and can scratch one off my bucket list after successfully finding some teeth:) It was a slow start since this was my fist time and I was unsure of areas to search but after a while I started to locate some teeth and a few other small things that I am unsure of. I spent the afternoon here and had a blast. I will definitely return sometime hopefully in the near future. We found around 40 teeth but only half or so are complete,or at least I think lol. I would like to see if anyone could help me to identify a few of them.

Considering a trip to Point A Dam this coming week if anyone is interested
still looking posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
I am planning a trip to the dam this week, probably Wed(8-10) or Fri(8-12), if any one wants to meet up. This will be my first time and I noticed we may have some rain in the forecast. I realize, after reading some of the other posts, that this plays a part on the releasing of the dam. Does anyone know if the dam releases at a certain time each day or is it at various times when it reaches a certain level? Thanks!- 8 replies
