ScubaNorth:Morgan River- South Carolina
Or you could buy one online for about $2000 from a fossil dealer. That actually sounds like a good dive trip. South Carolina looking for shark teeth, as long as they are not still attached to the shark you'll be all set. These little fellas were 70' long.
A massive 7 1/4 inch serrated shark tooth was found in a coastal river bed in South Carolina by fossil hunter Vito Bertucci. The fossilized tooth belongs to carcharodon Megalodon, a prehistoric 70-foot, 70,000 pound version of our modern-day Great White. To locate the tooth, and hundreds of smaller ones like it, Bertucci must battle Tiger and Bull sharks, alligators, cotton-mouth snakes, sea wasps (jelly fish) which can carry fatal stings...all in water that is usually pitch black, filled with strong currents.
OK, I stand corrected it may be easier to get them away from a live shark. It's the snakes and alligators that scare me.
