Don how old do you think those whale teeth might be that you send me? I know that is going to be a question that students will want to know?

Those are shark teeth Janet. I'll check and find out the approximate age. OK, those are approximately 15,000,000 years old. Here's an interesting article about the hill where I dug those out. www.sharkteethrus.com/stuff/teeth/2usa-ca.htmDon

Check with your rock club, and see if they have a field trip planned for Shark Tooth Hill. The hill is fenced and gated, and off limits to the general public, but allows organized digs every so often. Back in the 50's when I dug there, it was wide open.
