I know! I know the situation right now in Cali is bad but after the coming hurricane, just IMAGINE how much teeth would be on shore!

Roesch -4- Broward County Sheriff Hi. I would love to be able to go out and find these things. I have a few meg teeth that I have bought, only one of which is complete. Buying them costs money. To be able to just go out and pick them up would be great.

Dylan seymour thats true

I live in SC and love going out and finding them been on it for a week and got 95 yesterday

I agree with you

Thanks! Be sure to check us out on facebook because we are posting our best stuff there one day at a time.

the water is always clearer in the winter. i think its because cold water doesn't hold as much dissolved solids as warm.

@@blackriverfossils *I didn't ask you 'why.' it wasn't a question. lmao..It was only a comment young man..don't need to educate me*🗿*Your reply is inaccurate. Water is very seldom clearer in the winter. unless you are in mountainous regions. the water in the area where you are filming is most likely clearer because it is continuously running and sandy. sand itself acts as a rubbing compound which breaks up the minerals rubbing off the rocks. I'm not trolling but your reply is way off base. I hunt for fossils..I'm 60 and been hunting for over 50 yrs. You should be asking me questions. (❓) lmao. I hunt mainly Ammonites & Trilobites from the cretacious shallow seas of Texas & Oklahoma* Note: Anyone out there interested in buying Ammonites, Trilobites, Horse & Camel teeth, molars, verts, Mammoth bones, dactal bird (3)skulls etc.. hit me up at Nativetex54@gmail 📌

yes it is a super fun hobby!

It’s a deseri mako tooth

diving is where its at man. you can find them here and there on land, but if you're serious about wanting to find some big teeth, get in the water.

Jordan Lee it's a leaf

Jordan Lee yeah or was that a leaf

Trevor Aspinwall the only place i could recommend is dorchester creek aka sawmill branch creek that runs through summerville. you can't dig there but you can pick up shark teeth off the bottom. Also, you should not expect giant teeth to be just laying out for the taking. Lots of people go there so you will likely just find smaller ones. I don't really have a recommendation where to stay (coz I live here) but I know there are a lot of hotels around the area so that won't be an issue for you. If you are going on a fossil hunting vacation you would find more down on Venice Beach & Casperson Beach in Florida. With a little sifter rake that you can buy in the gift shops down there, you can find hundreds of teeth in a day right in the surf. Unless you are diving, you will not find hundreds of teeth in a day here. Thanks for watching my channel!

we find them from time to time in natural creeks because native Americans lived near them, but in man made creeks like this one we almost never come across artifacts.

i have never hunted in colorado so I can't tell you for sure. i did some googling though and found out there are actually shark teeth there, so I learned something today. i have thousands of teeth in my collection - not sure exactly how many coz I haven't counted lol. most are very tiny though, so they don't take up much space.

blackriverfossils there are giants there

it takes a lot of exploration. we just spent all weekend exploring for new places to hunt.

this place used to be underwater.

still hunting, i'm just not putting up videos as often as i used to. plus i've gotten into collecting crystals and metal detecting too so those cut into my fossil time. got some cool finds to show soon though! thanks for checking on me

Cristina Kramer I have a meg tooth

Cristina Colomer same

Same

the teeth are fossilized. the creek is eroding the geologic deposit where they lie

+blackriverfossils o thanks man I didn't know that ☺

Ironic horror kid 14 same

Kimst3rxvid I found this link for you about prehistoric sharks from Slovakia - sciencythoughts.blogspot.com/2014/01/deepwater-sharks-from-early-miocene-of.html

Thanks mate I appreciate it ... :)

thebosnian legend then that tooth is an otodus. if you found it, somebody else dropped it - i could see that happening. those teeth are often used in jewelry so if the previous owner's necklace fell off that would explain how you found it.

But is it still real

thebosnian legend yes it is real. its around 55 million years old, too!

Thx!

Kwynn Alge I feel bad you never got responded to... I would suggest saw mill Branch is you are going to Summerville, if you look along the walls of the creek (even if there is brush or sticks) you can find some big teeth... my first trip I found a 2 inch meg...you want to look about 2 feet up the wall if u want megs and about 1 foot if u want angistidents... please note that if you dig with a tool or your hands in Summerville you can get a fine so watch out for that.. happy hunting

At 8:57 when he finds the angistident in the wall... that is how you find most of the large teeth but there are some in the water too so look thoroughly

Probably in creeks just make sure there's no gators or snapping turtles

Brett Neumann here's the only page I know about that mentions shark teeth in Colorado www.fossilsites.com/STATES/CO.HTM best of luck!

blackriverfossils Why is SC a good state for finding teeth? We where all underwater at some point. Too long ago maybe?

Camroc37 because this area was the bottom of the ocean during the time when the environment was perfect to support a lot of big sharks. the coastal areas of almost the whole east coast are similar.

I don't think so

Lots of practice

These teeth are being washed out of layers of sediment that were laid down tens of thousands of years ago..these are fossil teeth after all..

Okay there still had to be water somewhere nearby.

the shoreline was much farther inland thousands of years ago..mix that with river flow pushing the teeth and what not upstream, then covering them in sand and mud and you have it right there.

i'm sorry i don't know anywhere in Ohio to collect.

Rivers do well for me

Daisha Williams when and where?

Daisha Williams when

Oh yeah!

I just collect.

its from a hole in the ground where the excavation dug through the ancient ocean floor.

OH COOLYO!

and when will you do another video

Gladys Hernandez when

around an inch

rare is a relative term. there are species here that cannot be found elsewhere so they are rare. there are other species found elsewhere that cannot be found here, so they are rare. it all depends on point of view. but of the teeth that can be found here, Parotodus benedeni are probably the rarest.

yes I have - I found several in North Carolina.

doing my best!

Sniped Fuze lol

its possible almost the entire east coast, maryland south through florida.

@@blackriverfossils would you mind if I tagged along once or twice with you guys.. I would know where to start..

@@blackriverfossils I'm in orangeburg, about 45 mins from Summerville..

@@tjedens9066 we get that question quite often, so much so that it is not humanly possible to take everyone who asks. i am grateful for everyone who watches so in order to not offend all those who have asked, I don't take anyone. I hope you understand.

@@tjedens9066 i've not looked in orangeburg, that might be too far inland. harleyville is the furthest inland I have found teeth in the SC lowcountry.

no i keep and collect what I find.

blackriverfossils hey how do those teeth get there this is my first god I'm watching and I love it :-)

the ocean used to cover the entire area where I live. The sharks lived here back then and lost their teeth. Now i am collecting the ancient ocean bottom and finding the fossilized teeth. thanks for watching! I just posted a new video today if you have a few extra minutes.

blackriverfossils if you were to count the teeth you have found all those years, would they be About 1000? 2000-5000? More than 10.000? Lol

more than 10,000. Most are tiny so don't think my house is loaded with massive megalodon teeth lol
