Very Rare Dinosaur Tooth fossil of the Carcharodontosaurus aka The African T Rex
Available is 1 fossil tooth from the Carcharodontosaurus also referred to as the African T Rex. 90 million years old and in Excellent condition! ... Please read the info below about the beast it once belonged to...
Name: Carcharodontosaurus saharicus means 'shark toothed lizard' Described: By – (Depéret & Savornin, 1925) Stromer, 1931 (originally Megalosaurus)
Diet: Carnivorous: the ultimate evolutionary killing machine. Labelled the ‘African T-Rex’ Size: Length – 45 feet (8m to 14m) long.
Weight: up to 8 tons
Geological Age: Mid to Late Cretaceous period, about 90 million years ago.
Locomotion: Carcharodontosaurus walked on two muscular legs, like T-Rex Teeth & Bones: Until recently, Carcharodontosaurus was only known from few scrappy remains. However new finds have shown that this creature was huge and rivaled T-Rex in size. Reconstruction of a skull initially indicated
that this dinosaur was the largest theropod in the world, however this appears to be an over estimate and Gigantosaurus still retains this record, although spinosaurus is now understood to have been the longest of the theropods (but not the biggest by bulk).

Dino Info:This massive carnivore gained lengths of over 45 foot, had a 6 foot long head and weighted up to 8 tons! It was bigger than T-Rex and it terrorized North Africa for a brief period during the Cretaceous. It is related to the Allosaurus family and has been determined to be one of the largest carnivores to ever walk the Earth.
Fossil Information: This is a LARGE & NICE example of a tooth from this beast. Some nice serrations visable on both sides of the tooth, but also some typical feeding ware noted. The tip is in reasonable condition. It measures a monster 4.8 cm long. Some nice enamel (both sides), so a very desirable addition to your dinosaur collection.... or as a present for someone who loves Dinosaurs!
This is a great opportunity to include in your collection a real tooth from a king of the dinosaur world. The tooth originates from Taouz in Morocco from the Tenana formation. Remember, this is the dinosaur that rivalled T-Rex, it was one of the world's most deadliest killers!
