1 1/8" Mako Shark Tooth

One of my favorite stream searching methods is screening the few pieces of gravel behind any submerged bowling ball sized object (or larger). There’s rarely more than one shovel full of gravel behind any such object, but the results can be good as was the case with this mako. It’s not the biggest tooth ever but the state of preservation is unbelievable.
