2 months, 3 weeks ago2 months, 3 weeks agoMy son wanted this to add to his collection. We were told it was a prehistoric animal that would relate to a salmon today. It seems like the sediment is sandstone. What is this fossil of though? #fossil

Our town has a 27m petrified tree. 250mya. Said to be the longest single piece in Southern hemisphere.

In Harrismith, Free State, South Africa.

Wow! That’s absolutely amazing! I would love to see that😍 @lynette-luff

I hope I remember to get a photo for you all. Its amazing to think how high this tree was. Apparently there is another 2m piece in a museum in the next town. Im thinking its a giant probably as high as our elevator. Imagine that.

6 months, 2 weeks ago6 months, 2 weeks agoAny ideas on what animal this tooth is from #fossil
-
It is not a tooth. This is a rugosa,or horn coral
-
Sorry this looks like a well eroded sharktooth. Depending on the size you may have found a megalodon tooth. Congratulations
-
I’m as found in Ontario definitely not a shark tooth or coral
-
It was found in Ontario canada
-
Had another look. Megalodon was present during Neogene period. From the maps I checked Lake Ontario seems to have been larger during earlier epochs as shown by shell and coral fossils. Megalodon did not necessarily swim there. The tooth could perhaps have been deposited between ice ages or could it have been carried in by humans? I would…[Read more]

This, unfortunately does not appear to be a fossil

Sorry does not look like a fossil. Might be a bit of coral?

Im confused. Coral can be a fossil. Why do you think it isnt a fossil?

I’ve been working on this fossil for over a year using my rotary too remove thin layers and as I go, it’s revealing to me that this isn’t just a rock. the top right is what got my attention because the appendage very evident. I will continue to post my progress, unless I’m told to not do so. I thought this was a good learning opportunity for…[Read more]

Hello, this looks a lot like an Enchodus jaw. You’re welcome to check the images on Google images.
Looks like one of the many fakes that come out of Morocco. often the teeth are real but the rest is faked. The bone here is too flat and oddly textured, and the teeth spacing and order doesn’t make sense. There’s a good writeup at fossil era (I don’t know them as a business, just like the…[Read more]
I agree with both of these responses. Enchodus teeth are real, but the jaw bones are not.
Enchodus is an extinct genus of aulopiform ray-finned fish related to lancetfish and lizardfish. Species of Enchodus flourished during the Late Cretaceous, and there is some evidence that they may have survived to the Paleocene or Eocene.
Thank you everyone. I figured the jaw was made for aesthetics. I looked up the Enchodus species and it seems like it is accurate. Thank you for all of your responses.
