Colorful Teeth

Fossil collectors often prize the unusual teeth of the Hemipristis Serra. The extremely colorful teeth and those with large serrations made it a unique addition to any collection.

The snaggletooth shark of today is the closest living relative to the Hemipristis Serra shark. This weasel shark species can be found in the Indo-West Pacific area, and they can often be located near the bottom of the water column of coastal regions. While this shark species is vulnerable to extinction, the snaggletooth shark is rarely seen.
