ABOUT THE MEGALODON AND ITS FOSSIL TEETH

Carcharocles megalodon was the largest predator in history and one of the most fascinating creatures to ever live. This massive animal lived during the Early Pliocene–Late Miocene epochs (3.5–8 million years ago), with ancestors like Carcharocles chubutensis, angustidens, auriculatus, aksuaticus, and Otodus obliquus dating back nearly 60 million years.

The Megalodon reached lengths of at least 60 feet (18 meters) and weighed around 50 tons—over three times longer and 25 times heavier than the Great White. Quite simply, the Megalodon was one of the most awe-inspiring prehistoric animals ever known.

For the most part, all that remains of this enormous predator are the fossilized Megalodon teeth. Luckily for collectors, these remarkable fossils—though difficult to find—are available to those passionate about authentic prehistoric specimens.

Fossil Megalodon teeth vary in size, color, and condition, with larger teeth over 5" being far rarer and more valuable. The most desirable specimens feature razor-sharp serrations, complete roots, intact enamel, and bourlette. After millions of years buried in the ocean, a tooth in such pristine condition is an exceptional discovery.

These Megalodon fossils are found in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and other regions, as well as international sites in Peru, Morocco, Indonesia, and Japan. Each tooth offers a tangible link to a time when giant marine predators ruled the seas.
