There weren’t many animals that ate ammonites, mainly ichthyosaurs and mosasaurs. The tooth is preserved strangely, I’m not even sure if it is a tooth at all. But if it is, it is most likely a ichthyosaur tooth.

Greetings @curtis-mckibben ! Did you also find this specimen in Spokane as with your jaw segment? I have reservations with the tooth ID. The lithology around Spokane is incredibly complex and consists of igneous and metamorphic rocks. There are considerable Pleistocene sedimentary deposits. The Miocene Latah Formation also makes an appearance in…[Read more]

no eastern montana
-
you should look at my other post of this ammonite .its the other side of it and i assure u its not a igneous rock .
-
Would you mind sharing the location data of where you discovered it? County and nearest municipality would more than suffice. Knowing the location would go a long way in contextual your specimen in its proper geological formation.
-
Alright. I see. I didn’t know this was the bottom side of the ammonite you posted.
-
I have to say that I have only seen that kind of iridescent preservation with Bear Paw Formation belemnites near Fort Peck, Montana.
-
Impressive stuff.
-
can any of those commenting tell me about the teeth in the jaw bone thats associated with this fossil .why they have crystallized.is this common?
-
and thank you i love this stuff .and ill reference with my wife about the exact location in montana were .shes from there .
-
Greetings @curtis-mckibben ! My best answer regarding the crystallization of your specimens is mineral intrusions of things like calcite, silica, or selenite into the fossil . This often occurs when environmental changes occur in the geological matrix in which the fossil is preserved.
-
The anterior view of your ammonite specimen appears to possess a black chert matrix.

snail or maybe a nautilus.
-
ammonite. the shell pattern is a key characteristic.
-
Ammonite indeed.
-
The pattern on the bottom is the internal shell chambers that supported the shell, housed the ammonite, and helped with buoyancy.
-
Oh that’s a gorgeous ammonite 🥰🥰

the other side has tooth marks and parts of 2 teeth embedded

really? can you post an image of those?

i did
