Description
I collect shark teeth because I enjoy it. I love being outdoors and the thrill of the hunt is a constant draw. I go with hope but without expectation. The beauty of nature and the smell of the sweet fresh air on the light breeze in the lowcountry swamp are invigorating and often I just look around and feel gratitude for the experience. But like I said in my first sentence, I'm here for the teeth. This area used to be covered by the ocean millions of years ago when mega sharks swam the seas, casually losing their teeth during feeding or by simply swimming around with that sharky open-mouth in the current style. The teeth fell to the bottom and fossilized over time, and now we collect them like easter eggs where the ancient ocean floor is close to the modern day surface. I want to find a giant megalodon tooth but those are very uncommon to find in good condition. Luckily there are lots of other kinds to find, and today I had the honor of finding a quality specimen of one of the rarest species we can find in the SC lowcountry. @AncientAdventures was there to witness the recovery of my newest treasure.
