Over 50 million years ago England was under water! These genuine Sand Shark teeth were found at Herne Bay in Kent, from sharks that once controlled the oceans. When a sharks teeth become worn the predator will ‘shed’ these teeth, and these will be replaced with new sharper, stronger teeth. However, unlike humans, Sharks are known for re-shedding hundreds of teeth on a regular basis, which makes them a fruitful find with fossil hunters.
