Early Cretaceous

Tegana Formation

Taouz, Morocco

Flawless, fully rooted 58mm tooth

Dinosaur, Theropod.

Spinosaurus was one of the largest theropod dinosaurs of all time, perhaps exceeding 50 feet in length and weighing maybe 7-10 tons. It has been interpreted as a semi-aquatic predator – basically a crocodile on two legs. It even has teeth like a croc.

Here’s a specimen for any fossil collector who is still missing a rooted dinosaur tooth in their collection. Great piece.
