This is a 3" long, Miocene aged, fossil Sperm Whale (Scaldicetus sp) tooth collected from a river in South Carolina. It was found associated with fossil shark teeth including those of the Megalodon. These whales would have been a food source for the gigantic Megalodon sharks living during the same time period.
