.46" Baby Tyrannosaur Tooth In Sandstone - Judith River Formation

Baby Tyrannosaur Tooth In Sandstone - Judith River Formation #189879

This is a really cool, theropod tooth from the Judith River Formation of Montana. It's a small, baby Tyrannosaur tooth still partially embedded in the sandstone that it was found in. The preservation is stunning with nearly flawless enamel and visible serrations.

Three species of tyrannosaur have been described from the Two Medicine & Judith River Formations: 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 genus because they are so similar.
