Carcharodontosaurus was one of the largest carnivores to ever live on earth! Nicknamed the \"African T-Rex\" it reached lengths of well over 40 feet (12 meters) and 8.5 tons, rivaling or even surpassing T-Rex in size! It's family, the Carcharodontosaurids dominated the middle Cretaceous landscape and included other monster size beasts such as Acrocanthosaurus, and Giganotosaurus! The tooth measures 2.94 inches (7.46 cm) along its longest edge (straight-line measurement) with fantastic serrations, a great tip, and a partial root! The tooth has one repaired break, but isn't restored unlike the overwhelming majority of dinosaur teeth this size! A terrific opportunity to own a piece of a truly monstrous carnivorous dinosaur, it comes in a double sided clear display case with a stand for easy transport and a beautiful display!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIMPORTANT INFORMATION ON CARCHARODONTOSAURUS: Traditionally all Moroccan Carcharodontosaur material has been labeled as Carcharodontosaurus saharicus, however recent discoveries seem to indicate that there was a second Carcharodontosaurid that has been named Sauroniops pachytholus. There also might not have been and the new specimen is just showing individual variation. In light of this I will be labeling my Carcharodontosaurus material as \"Carcharodontosaur\" to cover all bases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll of my items come with a Certificate of Authenticity!\u003cspan face=\"Arial\" size=\"4\" style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: large;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThank you for reading please contact me with any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHave a wonderful day!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecies: Carcharodontosaurid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2.94 inches (7.46 cm) along its longest edge (straight-line measurement)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFound: Morocco\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormation: Kem Kem Beds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAge: 98-94 million years old\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepair: One Repaired Break\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eP.s. Also about the \"African T-rex\" thing, please be careful with that. Carcharodontosaurs and T-rex weren't even remotely closely related (taxonomically cats and dogs are more closely related than them) and lived millions of years and thousands of miles apart from each other. Any \"T-rex\" tooth you see not from America, is probably this guy. Which is fine, Carcharodontosaurs are amazing dinosaur who should get more attention, but please be honest and beware those who aren't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eJust keeping it real.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jako's Fossils","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46947502063804,"sku":null,"price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9413\/2412\/files\/IMG_2206_7b697a13-7dc2-4ced-b996-7797c70c68a2.jpg?v=1781246160","url":"https:\/\/jakosfossils.com\/products\/huge-carcharodontosaur-fossil-tooth-just-under-3-inches","provider":"Jako's Fossil Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
