From the Bone Valley Region of Central Florida, U.S., this fossil shark tooth is of the famous, giant Carcharodon megalodon shark. Megalodon teeth from Bone Valley are considered to be the most beautiful in the world. Compared to the ugly black and dark brown crud-stained Meg teeth found in rivers, Bone Valley specimens have white or very light roots and enamel in a rainbow of colors. This is a result of the unique chemistry of the sediments in Bone Valley. What Is The Megalodon Shark? The megalodon shark - Carcharodon megalodon - was a giant shark estimated to grow up to 60 or 70 feet in length. Some people have suggested it could have reached up to 80 feet, which would make it even bigger than most land-based dinosaurs. The megalodon was a carnivore that would hunt other creatures in the ocean. It probably used its huge tail or flippers to stun its prey. Based on fossils, its teeth alone are some 6 inches or more long and its jaws around 6 feet wide. That sort of hunter could give even a whale a run for its money and it's been suggested that whale meat was one of its favorites.
