Speaking of prehistoric sharks, an old lady from down the block found what appears to be a fossilized tooth of some ancient shark species. But I doubt very much that it's the same species as the one in this article.

Anyway, she was so nice that she brought it over and we spent the entire night talking about prehistoric sharks and their evolutionary histories. I took the following photo of her with the tooth first thing in the morning. Poor woman is so frail she could barely lift the thing.

That is a tooth from a Megladon Charcadon Shark. Probably collected on the Maryland shores. I have one. Unfortunately I do not have the “frail old lady” holding the tooth.

I’ve been studying that pic very closely for a while but I haven’t seen a shark’s tooth yet. Are you sure there is one?

Would have been nice if you included a picture of the specimen...

Bless her heart! That was nice of you to keep her company, I’m sure she doesn’t get many visitors.
