XL Megalodon Era Shark Teeth Collection Framed Labeled Fossil Shark Tooth Lot!

Description: Hi all! These are extra large premium labeled collections of authentic Late Miocene Shark teeth from the southeast U.S. coast displayed in a 8.25 x 6.25 x 2 inch Riker mount. A great gift for aspiring paleontologists, each comes with 10 different species of shark teeth including a large (3.6 to 4 inches) Megalodon shark tooth and a (surprisingly) rare Hammerhead, a certificate of authenticity (Yes these are real Shark Teeth!!!!), and a one page description of the species on display also available below. Above are pictures of the twelve different available collections. You may pick whichever one you would like if it's available. If I don't hear from you before I ship (usually the next business day) one will be picked at random. The 10 species of shark teeth included in each case are: Extinct White: (Cosmopolitodus hastalis) The ancestor to the modern Great White Shark, The Extinct White Shark grew to over 20 feet (6 meters) in length and fed primarily on large fish, marine mammals, and smaller sharks. Sand Tiger: (Carcharias sp.) The Sand Tiger Shark lives in large schools in warm shallow water. They grow to over 10 feet (3 meters) long and primarily feed on smaller fish, sharks, crustaceans, and squid. Eagle Ray: (Myliobatis sp.) Stingrays are close relatives of sharks. Eagle rays have broad triangular fins and flat teeth for crushing shellfish. The ridged side of the tooth is actually the root. Requiem: (Carcharhinus sp.) Shark teeth of the genus Carcharhinus (a genus from a group of sharks called "Requiem Sharks") are very similar across species, all 35 of them! Species include the Bull, Dusky, Blacktip, Spinner, Copper, and Silky Sharks. The largest, the Dusky, grows to over 14 feet (4.2 meters) long though most species are less than 6 feet (1.8 meters). One species, the Bull Shark, is considered one of the most dangerous sharks in the world and is able to swim in salt and fresh water! All species feed on smaller fish, sharks, crustaceans, and squid. Lemon: (Negaprion sp.) Lemon Sharks use the same nursery grounds for their pups for many generations. They grow to over 10 feet (3 meters) long and primarily feed on smaller fish, sharks, crustaceans, and squid. Hammerhead: (Sphyrna sp.) There are 8 living and 5 extinct species of Hammerhead Shark. The largest, the Great Hammerhead Shark, can grow to 20 feet (6 meters) in length. The smallest, the Bonnethead Shark, is usually only 3 feet (1 meter) long. The smaller species eat small fish and crustaceans. The larger species eat large fish, smaller sharks, and stingrays. Hammerhead's iconic head is used to sense the tiny bits of electricity emitted by living animals muscles. All sharks have the ability to sense this, but the Hammerhead's wider head gives it more of the organs (Ampullae of Lorenzini) that detect this. Long Tooth Tiger: (Physogaleus contortus) This species was originally thought to be more closely related to the Tiger shark (Galeocerdo). It was later reclassified under the extinct genus Physogaleus (this species is also extinct). They would have grown to over 10 feet (3 meters) long and primarily feed on smaller fish, sharks, crustaceans, and squid as indicated by its long-pointed teeth. Snaggletooth: (Hemipristis serra) This large extinct shark grew to lengths of 20 feet (6 meters) and had teeth that looked like little chainsaws! The modern Snaggletooth is much smaller growing up to 7. 5 feet long (2.25 meters) and feed on smaller fish, sharks, crustaceans, and squid. Tiger: (Galeocerdo sp.) Tiger Sharks have the most varied diet of any shark they feed on large fish, sharks, crustaceans, squid, stingrays, sea birds, marine mammals, and sea turtles. They also been known to eat garbage like license plates, boat oars, clothes, and tin cans. The first Tiger Shark evolved about 60 million years ago. The modern Tiger Shark grows up to 18 feet (5.5 meters) in length. Megalodon: (Carcharocles megalodon) Megalodon was the largest known species of shark to have ever lived. It grew to over 60 feet (18 meters) in length and fed primarily on large marine mammals including whales, dolphins, seals, manatees, and even the occasional Mammoth out for a swim.
