North Sulphur River Sharks Teeth
|
The Whole Pile of Teeth
The majortiy of these are sharks teeth but there is a few that are teeth from other types of fish. Most of them are broken to some degree but there is a few that are near perfect. |

This is the very end of the nose of a Mosasaur. You can see the sockets for the teeth and there is even a partial tooth in the socket closest to the end of the nose. |
Mosasaur Jaw Section
This is a section of a Mosasaur jaw bone with a tooth still in it. |

Mosasaur Vertebrae
|
Large Vertebrae
This is a pretty worn and banged up vertebrae I found back in '99'. I'm not even sure of what kind of creature it's from. |

Vertebrae
Another vertebrae I found a couple of years ago. |
Miscellaneous Fossils
These are some miscellaneous fossils and a plain ol' rock that had a whole in it and a round rock stuck in it. I thought it was kinda neat so I kept it. Starting from the 12:00 position and going clockwise, rock, fish vertebrae, coprolite, tooth enamel (probably from a Mastedon tooth), Mosasaur tooth and in the center is a very small piece of Mosasaur jaw with teeth. The large black Mosasaur tooth has had the tip severly worn down till it's very blunt. They are normally sharp. |

Coprolite (fossilized fecies)
Coprolite is fossilized fecies. I prefer the term, Dino Doody. |
This is a piece of fish jawbone. You can see the teeth in the side.
