Otodus Obliquus Tooth 3.14 ” Authentic Fossil Shark teeth

This is a very large fossil shark tooth of the species Otodus obliquus from the Sidi Chennane Basin in Morocco. It’s approximately 54 million years old, 3.14 inches in length and still embedded.

Otodus obliquus is an extinct species of shark that lived during the Paleocene and Eocene epochs, approximately 60 to 45 million years ago. It was a large shark, reaching lengths of up to 10 meters (33 feet), and was one of the top predators of its time.

Otodus obliquus is best known from its fossilized teeth, which are large, thick, and triangular in shape with serrated edges. These teeth are commonly found in marine sediments around the world, and are often used as index fossils to help date and correlate different geological strata.

Although Otodus obliquus is now extinct, its descendants include modern sharks such as the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) and the mako shark (Isurus spp.).
