Well Preserved Fossil Crocodile Tooth - Morocco

This is a large Cretaceous aged fossil crocodile tooth from the Tegana Formation of Morocco. This tooth was handpicked from a large lot of teeth for it's great enamel preservation and large size.

Many dealers labeling similar teeth as coming from sarcosuchus (The Super Croc) to make them easier to sell. There were several crocodile species living alongside each other in the Kem Kem Basin. Unless the tooth is super sized (>2 inches) there really is no way of definitively assigning it to Sarcosuchus.
