Primitive Sea Cow Tusk Desmostylus hesperus Temblor Formation, Fresno County, California Middle Miocene epoch 20 million years old Tusk: 16.38 inchs long x 2.5 inches at the base The rarest or rare from this classic California fossil bed, while the teeth of these animals are known to show up, larger specimens like this complete tusk are almost never offered for sale. This would make a wonderful display piece for any museum collection or private display! From an uncommon California fossil locality, this sea cow tusk was found in an ancient marine environment. With a few repairs, as typical for this incredibly hard, shell dense, matrix, extractions is often in pieces, then repaired later. *Fossils from this site are very uncommon as collecting has not gone on for over 20 years from this particular site.

Prognathodon anceps (Owen, 1845) Ouled Bouali, Khourigba, Morocco, North Africa Upper Cretaceous Period - 99-65 Million Years Old Tooth : 5.36 x 1.77 in. Jaw : 5.45 in. long 1 inch = 2.54 cm Presented here is a spectacular Mosasaur tooth still rooted in the original jaw! At over 5 inches, this is a very rare size for a Mosasaur tooth, let alone still one rooted in the jawbone. On the back you can see a trait present even in modern day reptiles, tooth regeneration - a new tooth was regrowing and pushing out this older and larger tooth - a process reptiles continually go through throughout their lives. This tooth has been repaired, the enamel cap has been placed back in position. Teeth of this size are very rare and almost never make it out of the mines unbroken or altered. A true gem for any collection or museum display. Learn More -
