Shark Tooth Fossil from Morocco

Please refer to photos for size.

Otodus obliquus is an extinct species of mackerel shark and an ancestor of Megalodon. It lived from the Palaeocene (around 66 million years ago) to the Miocene (around 5 million years ago).

Fossilised shark teeth are ancient remains of powerful prehistoric sharks. They are composed of hydroxyapatite, which allows them to preserve well over millions of years.
