Sharks are considered as the barbaric hunters of the ocean. Among all, the great white shark is known as the apex predator that rarely misses the intended prey. Although, we all have seen their nature and appetite for human preys in many Hollywood movies, in fact, they don’t deserve the reputation of hunting humans. Today, a number of researchers are studying the behavior and natural habits of great whites. Great whites are popular for their powerful jaws and rows of serrated teeth. However, their large size may have made them vulnerable to extinction and today we have added a huge number of fossilized great white shark tooth collected from various parts of the world.

Fossils are one of the best ways to learn about the past living organisms. They are considered as the record of ancient planet and animal existence. Permineralization is the most common process of preserving the organic remains of a previous time. According to the scientists, almost all living organisms can abdicate fossils, but normally the hard parts of animals and plants fossilize. The decay process includes soft organs, skin, muscle, and other soft internal organs. Teeth and other bones are good candidates for fossilization.

These dinosaurs went extinct, million years ago and today, we have only their fossilized teeth collected from different parts of the world. We have dinosaur teeth for sale. If you want to buy them,

Today, trilobites exist only in the form of fossil. It is classified as a form of early arthropod. When we talk about Paleozoic era, it represents a geographical time period having a few characteristics. This time period sets it apart from others. In the Paleozoic period, life exploded into animal form marking the beginning of this era. It was an era in the Cambrian period and the prolific arthropod became the signpost for the era. If you take a close look at the trilobites, it reveals certain familiarity with modern-day species known to us.
