THobern Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The Mesabi Range has fossil shark teeth, but Carcharhinus species are much to recent to have come from Minnesota. Add too that, Bull Shark's are viviparous, and the young are over 2' in length at birth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caleb Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I have found shark teeth near Rochester, MN so they are there. There are the occasional pockets of Cretaceous deposits on top of the Ordovician age bedrock in that area. Caleb Midwestpaleo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
