Fossil Shark Teeth in Vial
A small 2-dram vial filled with an assortment of different fossil shark teeth.
Fossil shark teeth are some of the most common fossils people collect, mostly because sharks have been around for hundreds of millions of years and constantly shed teeth throughout their lives. Unlike shark skeletons, which are made mostly of cartilage and rarely fossilize, the teeth are dense and preserve really well in sediment over time. Fun fact: sharks are older than trees. The earliest sharks appeared over 400 million years ago, while the first true trees showed up around 350 million years ago. That means sharks were already swimming in the oceans for roughly 50 million years before forests existed on land. I guess the point we're getting at here is that these are some really old teeth.
