🦈 About Megalodon Fossils
Megalodon teeth are among the most iconic and highly sought-after fossils in the world. Belonging to the extinct apex predator Otodus megalodon, these massive sharks ruled the oceans from the Miocene to Pliocene epochs—approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago. Capable of reaching lengths of up to 60 feet, Megalodon was one of the largest and most powerful predators to have ever lived.
Megalodon teeth are typically identified by their triangular shape, serrated edges, and thick, robust root structure. Sizes can range from under 2 inches to over 7 inches, with color variations resulting from the minerals in the sediment where the tooth fossilized—commonly shades of black, gray, tan, and blue.
These teeth are collected from fossil-rich regions such as:
-
Coastal riverbeds and offshore sites in the southeastern U.S. (e.g., Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas)
- Deep-sea dredge operations
- Marine sediments in Central and South America
