.75" Iguanodon Shed Tooth - West Sussex, England
This is a rare, .75" long shed tooth of an Iguanodon from Horsham, West Sussex, England. There is a repair in the crown of the tooth.
Iguanodon is a large bipedal dinosaur which has the distinction of being only the second dinosaur formally named. It was a bulky herbivore which may have reached sizes of up to 40 feet in length. The name is derived from 'Iguana', a modern reptile, and 'don' meaning tooth. There was once thought to be two species of Iguanodon on the Isle of Wight, but one species has been moved off into another genus.
