I go through thousands of spinosaur teeth each year and it’s rare to come across a perfect, unbroken tooth.

I’ve picked out some of the better ones. That being said they might have repair and all will have a coating of glue that was applied in the field. I’ve taken good images of them so you can see what I can’t with the naked eye.

Best bang for your buck when it comes to buying a theropod dinosaur tooth…the largest carnivorous dinosaur that ever existed.

Spinosaurus, an intriguing dinosaur known for its unique features, once roamed the lands of what is now North Africa. It lived during the Cretaceous period, roughly between 112 to 97 million years ago. This period was an era of great diversity among dinosaurs, and Spinosaurus stood out as one of the most distinctive.

Location and Habitat: The Spinosaurus primarily inhabited the regions that are part of modern-day Morocco. The area, during its time, was a lush, river-laden environment, providing a perfect habitat for this semi-aquatic predator. Its adaptations suggest it was as comfortable in water as it was on land, a trait that set it apart from many other dinosaur species.

Discovery in Morocco: The history of Spinosaurus discoveries in Morocco is particularly fascinating. While the first recognized Spinosaurus fossils were found in Egypt and later destroyed in World War II, it was in the Kem Kem Beds of Morocco that the most significant discoveries were made. These fossils, uncovered more recently, have provided valuable insights into the species. The Kem Kem Beds, a fossil-rich region, has been a treasure trove for paleontologists, revealing not just Spinosaurus remains but a variety of other Cretaceous creatures.

Size and Features: Spinosaurus is renowned for being one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs, potentially even surpassing the size of the famous Tyrannosaurus Rex. Estimates of its size range up to 59 feet in length, making it a true giant of its time. One of its most distinguishing features was the series of long spines on its back, likely forming a sail-like structure.

Diet and Lifestyle: Analysis of Spinosaurus fossils, including its skull and teeth structure, suggests that it had a diet that heavily included fish, indicating a semi-aquatic lifestyle. This diet was unique among large theropods and speaks to the adaptability and ecological role of Spinosaurus in its environment.

In summary, the Spinosaurus was a remarkable dinosaur that thrived in the Cretaceous period in what is now Morocco. Its discovery and study have provided invaluable insights into the diversity and complexity of dinosaur life during that era.
