Millions of years ago, the entire low country of South Carolina was covered by the ocean and there were different inhabitants. Bigger, toothier inhabitants who now have their own week / month on TV depending on which channel you're watching. Yes, I'm talking about sharks. Beautiful prehistoric eating machines who lost their teeth all over the place. Those shark teeth are now fossils and collecting them is our hobby. No matter how many we find, each one is different. In the same shark, the shape of each shark tooth is different depending on where in the mouth it is from. In many species, the top teeth are different from the bottom teeth, and even with the top teeth match the bottom teeth, they differ from the front of the jaw to the rear positions. Then there are different sizes of sharks, pathologies caused by injuries or infections that result in misshapen teeth. Then, between different species the variation of teeth is extreme. All of this adds up to a nice variety of shark teeth to find, so each hunt is a new adventure, even to places that we go back to again and again. @AncientAdventures stole the show today with the tooth of the day, a best for this particular site so far.
