Ernst quarry or sharktooth hill, whichever name you prefer As most of you know this site it well known for the rich fauna of sharks teet. I recently found a nice shark vertebra on wrightsville beach, north carolina It's about 1.5 in diameter and 3/8 thick Are there any identifiable differences between shark species' vertebrae or do all shark vertebrae pretty much look the same The shark teeth from bakersfield are quite special
Oftentimes when i pull colorful teeth out of the ground, it's hard to tell how they end up looking after oxidizing over a few days, but will try to post a tooth called zephyr shortly, it's got a really rich dusk purple on the labial side even after oxidizing. The arches were cartilaginous in life and disintegrate quickly after death The centrum sometimes survives as a fossil because it is at least partially ossified Because they aren't solid bone, they are fragile. The fungus causes especially large outbreaks in seasons that are abnormally wet, followed by very hot and dry conditions as are typical in bakersfield (shark tooth hill is practically ground zero for the stuff) and the tar seeps around mckittrick and elsewhere. Great trip with socal paleo to a private dig in a miocene era deposit near sharktooth hill
Also found many shark teeth from relatives of modern great white sharks, mako sharks, tiger sharks, angel sharks, blackt. February 28, 2013 in fossil hunting trips Michigan was high and dry from the mesozoic and later, the ages for these types of teeth (except for the great lakes which are fresh water) These look like shark teeth that are found in coastal areas,tx, la, fla, the carolinas and california. So i approached this as a newbee For fun, pictures of pathological teeth are shown.
Stumbled on this site and remembered i had an account that i haven't used for a while Five years later, i thought i'd post an update Shark tooth island is located in wilmington, nc, just off the shore from river road park If you're standing at the boat ramp facing the river, the island directl.
