This young one has a passion for the past and is a paleontologist. A 6-year-old makes a 5-inch prehistoric shark tooth discovery while fossil-hunting with his family.
22 million years ago, it had a height of up to 31 feet.
a tooth from a species related to the megalodon.
A six-year-old child sifting through gravel and mud while on vacation with his family came across a sizable fossilized shark tooth.
The megalodon shark, a relative of the extinct Angustidon shark, lived in the time when the 4.75-inch-long tooth, which belonged to it, was formed.
The child discovered what seemed to be the edge of a tooth while sifting through piles of dirt and pebbles at a fossil-hunting outing.
Congratulations, sweetheart! Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime gem! Mentioned in a Facebook post was fossil hunting

These sharks are linked to the gigantic-teeth extinct Autodus megalodon.
This is not the first time a young person has discovered a remarkable discovery.
Sammy Shelton discovered a fossilized whale shark tooth while visiting Bowdsey Beach in Suffolk with his father.
When he brought the oldest fossil of the biggest shark ever discovered to an exhibition and presentation, his classmates were astounded.
Approximately 3.6–23 million years ago, the sea was inhabited by the 250-toothed Megalodon, which could reach a length of 67 feet.
People have described it as a once-in-a-lifetime find, according to his father Peter Shelton, a retired GP in Bradwell, Norfolk, who is 60 years old.Actually, we were seeking for something exciting to do on the beach, but

The fossilized vertebrae and teeth of Megalodon have a triangular shape with a diagonal length of around eight inches.
Vito "Megalodon" Bertucci, a well-known fossil hunter, spent nearly 20 years recreating the Megalodon's jaw, which is the largest one ever put together and measures 11 feet by 9 feet.
10.8 to 18.2 tons of force would be generated by Megalodon's enormous mouth.
The prehistoric shark has been referred to as a super predator because of its ability to swim rapidly and dispatch a range of prey, including sea turtles and whales.
