Sharks are majestic predators of the deep that have fascinated the masses for time untold. Believe me, I am hooked on finding out more about them. That being said I am by no means a paleontologist, but I have done a decent amount of research to increase my knowledge on the subject of finding shark teeth and answering the 5 W's (who, what, when, where and why) about shark teeth. Here are some answers to many frequently asked questions regarding shark teeth.
Who do the teeth belong to?
The shark teeth that we are finding and collecting are not the sparkling white teeth you would extract from a modern living shark, but beautiful, glossy black or brown fossilized teeth of their ancient ancestors. These teeth are 10,000 years and older and have been hardened with the test of time. As a whole Shark teeth have changed very little over the years with very few differences between the different geological eras and periods. This makes identifying the age of the teeth hard to do without knowledge of where they had been found.
