Serrated, .67" Theropod Tooth - Real Dinosaur Tooth
This is a serrated tooth of an unidentified theropod dinosaur. This tooth was collected alongside raptor teeth from the Kem Kem Beds of Morocco. Comes in an acrylic display case.
The Kem Kem Group is famous for yielding a diverse Late Cretaceous vertebrate assemblage, including fish, reptiles, and dinosaurs such as Spinosaurus. These fossils are found in a thin bed that outcrops around the edge of a large plateau near Taouz, Morocco. Local miners collect these fossils by digging narrow tunnels by hand into this plateau, following the layer.
