The tooth had been lying on the sea floor for millions of years before a deep-sea bottom sled found it.

This doesn't sound right.

Sounds right to me. Why doesn't it sound right?

Over several million years one might expect sediment to have covered the tooth. Of course there may actually be some of the species still surviving that have not been caught. A ceolocanth (sp?) was caught a while back and scientists had determined it to be extinct for millions of years before one was caught by a fisherman.

This doesn't sound right.

Seems to me geologists agree that there are no "ancient" sea floors due to subduction.
