Phil M Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Found this large tooth in Big Brook today. Is it just a very large goblin shark? If so she was a big one! Shame it’s not a full tooth. Also attached is a side by side comparison to the normal size I find. Thanks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilsonwheels Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I think the comparison tooth is Paranomotodon not Scapanorhynchus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
