Scientific Name:
Carcharodontosaurus saharicus
Location:
Kem Kem Valley, Morocco
Stage:
Upper Cretaceous (~96–93 Ma)
Size:
Approximately 3.8 cm
Fossil description:
Tooth of Carcharodontosaurus saharicus, known as the “African T. rex,” one of the largest carnivorous theropods to inhabit North Africa.
This specimen is of very good quality, with excellent, thick, and well-preserved enamel, as well as a very pronounced and sharp serration, an essential feature for identifying authentic teeth of this great predator.
It stands out especially for preserving part of the root, something not common in Kem Kem teeth, which increases its scientific and collector value.
The piece shows a robust morphology, typical curvature, and a natural surface without invasive restorations.
