CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT DROMAEOSAURS
This is a classic dromaeosaur "raptor" dinosaur tooth of the finest quality. It shows beautiful color and grain. This tooth is INTACT WITH NO RESTORATION AND NO REPAIR. The serrations run sharp and detailed down the entire length. The tip is unbroken and the tooth is complete. Most dromaeosaurs were only knee-high and about the size of small dogs, hence the very small teeth that are usually found. This is a TOP GRADE fossil tooth of a seldom seen quality with superb enamel, color and overall preservation.
Many African dinosaurs are yet undiscovered and/or identified. Saharan expeditions in the recent years have yielded incredible new discoveries of many species never known to exist including dromaeosaurs. There are likely several species of African dromaeosaurs, ranging from the size of a peacock up to the size of Velociraptor, that have never been attributed based on wide ranging characteristics of the teeth.
