shark tooth
Fossilized ocean souvenir
A shark tooth is a tooth from a shark, often found fossilized on beaches or in sediment.
Because sharks continuously shed and replace teeth throughout their lives, their teeth are among the most common marine fossils.
Shark teeth are collected as curiosities, worn as jewelry, or studied by paleontologists: She found a shark tooth in the sand.
