5 years ago5 years agoThis was fun! Walking on the beach near St Petersburg Fl., my daughter looked down and just picked this up out of the sand! We were told it is from an extinct Mako ?
great!
Awesome find! @vperez might be able to confirm that it is a mako.
This tooth is from Carcharodon hastalis. It was originally considered an extinct mako, but now is thought to be the ancestor of the living Great White shark. Very nice find!
Wow, thanks! I really enjoy this new (to me) information :). 🙂
