Megalodon shark teeth found in the St. Marys River in southern Georgia are part of a rich fossil record that hints at the area’s prehistoric marine life. These teeth, belonging to the extinct Megalodon shark, are prized by fossil enthusiasts for their size and impressive preservation.
Megalodon was a massive shark that lived approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago, during the Miocene and Pliocene epochs. It is believed to have been one of the largest predators to ever exist, with teeth that could grow up to 7 inches in length. These teeth are characterized by their large size, triangular shape, and serrated edges, which were used for grasping and cutting prey.
The St. Marys River, which forms part of the border between Georgia and Florida, has yielded numerous Megalodon teeth over the years. The river’s sedimentary deposits contain fossils from the Miocene and Pliocene epochs, including those of Megalodon and other ancient marine creatures. Fossil hunters and collectors frequent the riverbanks, searching for these elusive treasures.
