DELTADROMEUS TOOTH - Tegana Formation of Kem Kem, Morocco

CRETACEOUS PERIOD:  99 - 93 million years ago

As one of the largest Deltadromeus teeth we have offered, this is one impressive examples of this very rare dinosaur.  Enamel is a golden blond with orange highlights.  Graining is wonderful and distinct.  Sharp tip is present with minor natural feeding damage on trailing edge as well as some natural feeding wear on lower leading edge of tooth.  Overall serrations are defined and well preserved.  Tooth has been chemically stabilized and is without any fabrication.  A super specimen of immense proportions for this species!  A very highly recommended specimen and a GENUINE Deltadromeus tooth, not a common misidentified raptor tooth like most other dealers and online auctioneers pass off as coming from this large carnivore.

Deltadromeus agilis was a meat-eating dinosaur believed to be an early offshoot of the therapod line that led to the development of tyrannosaurs and raptors in North America.  This carnosaur is greater than 25 feet in length and is 8 feet high at the hip.  Estimated weight when the creature was alive is 3.5 to 4 tons.  Deltadromeus approaches the size of Tyrannosaurus yet, was a swift and agile hunter. 

CAUTION:  MANY DEALERS ARE CURRENTLY SELLING SMALL (1" AND UNDER) UNIDENTIFIED RAPTOR TEETH OF VERY LITTLE VALUE AS DELTADROMEUS AGILIS TEETH.  YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A PALEONTOLOGIST TO UNDERSTAND THAT A 25 FOOT MEAT-EATING THERAPOD THE SIZE OF A JUVENILE T. REX DID NOT HAVE TEETH SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN A DIME! 

Do not miss out on this beautiful specimen of this very rare and highly sought-after new species of dinosaur while still available.
