1.87" Tyrannosaur Tooth - Judith River Formation

This is a 1.87" Tyrannosaur tooth from the Judith River Formation of Montana. This formation is approximately 70 million years old, or about 5 million years old than the Hell Creek Formation which produces T-Rex.

It has beautiful enamel preservation and fine serrations with some feeding wear to the tip. There is a repaired crack with gap fill near the base on one side.

There are three described Tyrannosaurs from the Two Medicine Formation (Judith River Group), Albertosaurus, Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus. Research done on teeth from these three Tyrannosaurs has concluded that isolated teeth are statistically impossible to assign to a specific genre because they are so similar.
