Fossil megalodon teeth can vary in color from off-white to dark browns, greys, and blues, and some fossil teeth may have been redeposited into a younger stratum. The claims that megalodon could remain elusive in the depths, similar to the megamouth shark which was discovered in 1976, are unlikely as the shark lived in warm coastal waters and ...
Megalodon is an extinct genus of bivalve molluscs that reportedly lived from the Devonian to the Jurassic period.

A lot of that early research can be found on the pages of The Cretaceous Fossils of New Jersey, first printed in 1958, and reprinted in 1991. Dinosaurs, reptiles, microbes and more: Check out NJ's ...
Most of the teeth found here range from 3 to 10 million years old. [13] Near New Caledonia, up until the practice was banned, fishermen and commercial vessels used to dredge the sea floor for megalodon teeth. In the state of Georgia, shark teeth are found so often that they decided to make shark teeth the official state fossil in 1976. [18]
