FOSSIL UPLOAD
First, make sure you have a myFOSSIL account, this is required to upload your fossil information. If you are interested in seeing if your fossil can be used for research purposes, please follow through the following steps. They walk you through the information needed and why it is helpful for other scientists to use it for research questions. Even if the information you have on your fossil is not enough to be used for research purposes it will still benefit the community through educational means and help others identify their fossils. Specimens that have sufficient information will be uploaded to iDigBio and GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) for public accessibility.
If you have already gone through the stepwise process that explains each piece of data please click through to a summary tab where you can enter in your specimen data on a single page.

Well, knowing the creature’s age would help in my opinion, even though the equipment needed is expensive. To me, it looks like a broken off part of a big tooth, but I’m not sure about which kind of tooth it is.
@aggelos-mantos-3 I’m not sure what you mean by it being part of a larger tooth, it seems to be a whole shed tooth
I mean if memory serves, Hell creek only has 3 toothy theropod groups: Tyrannosaurs, Dromeosaurs, and troodontids. I don’t see the prominent serrations on the distal side I would expect out of a Troodontid, so its probably either Tyrannosaurus or Acheroraptor. Use this description to help compare to Acheroraptor…[Read more]
@mason-hintermeister the tooth doesn’t seem to match up with archeroraptor very well with the images I’ve seen, leading me to believe its a tyrannosaur. in the research I’ve done though I’ve discovered two teeth that I own are likely archeroraptor
@the-rogue , I mean that it might be a fragment of a bigger tooth
