Serrated, .88" Juvenile Tyrannosaur Tooth - Judith River Formation
This is a .88" 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.
This tooth is quite small and likely would have come from a juvenile. Visible serrations and nice enamel are present. One repaired crack in the middle of the tooth with a small gap fill near the edge.
Comes with a small acrylic display case.

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.
