Where did you get the Spino tooth?

MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 8:26 PM
Store in the Outer Banks. Michael's Gems and Glass I think. I get a lot of fossils there. It was not a huge tooth, 2.5 inches or so. They are all real fossils. I get them checked. I know some people at Penn State University and I have sent some fossils there to be identified.

must have been a smaller one, ive heard of some being 8 inches.

MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 8:39 PM
Yeah, they seem to average about 5-6 inches long, 7 or 8 being the max. Then again it could just be the tip of the tooth. There was no root. I think it was the bottom half, the whole thing was probably 4 or 5 inches long. It's still pretty cool. My Meg teeth and Mosasaur jaws/teeth are some of my favorites. The angler-fish my jaw bone belonged to is estimated to be about 6 ft long and 50+ pounds. PSU identified it for me. Said it was something like 15-20 million years old.

Better than nothing. Prehistoricstore.com has some really nice replicas including Spinosaurus replicas: teeth, claws, etc. With all this talk about JP, Spinosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus, I have been studying my Spino tooth and Rex tooth replica like crazy. Trying to get as much info as possible out of em, lol

My sister has a fragment of a Carnotaurus skull she found (or bought) in South America, along with a big tooth of some sort. It's about 5 inches long and slightly serrated. I have numerous ammonite, clam and snail shells from fossil beach along with a few teeth that looks like a whale's that are about 3 inches long.

i need to find a place to buy some, just so i can say i have SOME other that that tooth, HAHA

MemberCompsognathusJun-10-2013 9:03 PM
Nice. It definitely helps to have some to study up close. That's pretty cool DinoFights. The Carnotaurus fragment and the other fossils. I figure, I can't get some of the real fossils out there, so I'll just order replicas. Next best thing really

BTW, that 5 inch tooth you mentioned. Sounds like it would come from either Giganotosaurus or Mapusaurus, based on the size. Do you know what shape it was? Thin? Thick? Neither?

The tooth was a little more robust that Giganotosaurus or Mapusaurus teeth. It seems a little different than most carcharodontosaurid teeth. Still not like a T-Rex's tooth, but somewhere between there.

Nahh not really, i would agree with that. Disreguarding Giganotosaurus.

Interesting, may be a Tyrannotitan. Or a large abelisaur, larger than Aucasuarus at least.

Interesting. I'll have to see if anyone can identify it for sure.

found Several fossils me and my sister excavated from our riverbed at our ranch: lenghts 4 large fossils measuring around 5 feet x 3 feet include 9 specimens 1 medium fossil about 2 feet x 2 feet include 3 specimens 2 smaller fossils about 1 foot x 1/2 feet include 5 specimens Sadly 5 of the fossils were lost *correction my dad went and decided to use them as a makeshift bridge for cows... didn't work... :( lost 5 EXCELLENT fossils* I still have 2 left... my house is the prime location for fossils, due to it being right in a coulee were the Glacier passed millions of years ago, im currently working on an area with a lot of what id like to believe is a form of fossil rock, id have continued with my dig if it weren't for BLASTED ANTS!!!! any who im about id like to say 15 minutes from royal terral museum in drumheller, I plan to eventually go for a dig there... So far only water specimens ove found, but if I've learned anything its that science is trial and error, who knows i could just be a shovel full of dirt away from a rex skeleton.... MAN THAT'D BE AWESOME... id also like to look into digging up in montana...
