solid. Tyrannosaur

another example of natural art.

rhino info
Item 137 American mastodon (Mammut americanum) jaw
with three teeth. Pleistocene. Nemeha River, Nebraska. Found
circa 1989. The jaw is nice and has two partial teeth and one complete
tooth that is unerupted. With three teeth and one empty tooth cavity, this
jaw shows how bone replaced itself throughout the animal's life, bringing new
teeth to the front. Mastodon
info
Item 111 Gomphotherium tooth. Miocene.
Gansu, China. Gomphothere
info
Item 217 Carcharodontosaurus saharacus tooth. Cretaceous. North Africa. This tooth has a bit
of natural feeding wear and really neat "growth" patterns. A few
serrations have been restored (second photo). I'd say total restoration on
this specimen is less than 1%. Often called the African T-rex,
Carcharodontosaurus was actually more closely related to Allosaurs and
was a bit larger than Tyrannosaurus rex.
Item 235 Hyracodon "running rhino" upper skull section
with fine chocolate teeth. Oligocene. White River Group, Brule
Formation, Sheep Mountain, South Dakota. This specimen was also found in
1942 and has a plaster display base. The teeth are very nice
chocolate-colored.
