🌊 Where This Fossil Comes From

This tooth was recovered from ancient marine deposits in Khouribga, Morocco, a site famous for producing beautifully preserved Eocene-age shark fossils. During this time, warm shallow seas covered the region, creating perfect conditions for fossil formation.

Over millions of years, these teeth fossilized under layers of sediment before being carefully collected by modern fossil hunters.
