About the Spinosaurus
Spinosaurus aegyptiacus roamed North Africa about 95–100 million years ago. It was a semi-aquatic predator with a long snout full of conical teeth. These teeth helped it catch fish in ancient rivers and lakes. Fossils suggest it could switch between land and water hunting. It had a tall sail-like structure on its back, making it stand out among dinosaurs.
This tooth gives a glimpse into that ancient world. It may have been part of a jaw that clamped down on a prehistoric fish or small dinosaur. Holding it is like holding time itself.

FAQs
Q: How old is the Kem Kem Beds formation?
The Kem Kem Beds in southeastern Morocco date to the Late Cretaceous period, around 100 to 95 million years ago (Cenomanian stage).
Q: Why is Morocco a hotspot for Spinosaurus fossils?
During the Cretaceous, the region was a lush river system rich in fish and other prey, making it an ideal habitat for Spinosaurus. Extensive fossil deposits and active excavations in the Kem Kem Beds have yielded numerous finds.
Q: Are Moroccan Spinosaurus teeth found in river deposits?
Yes. Many teeth are discovered in ancient river and deltaic sediments, consistent with the Spinosaurus’ semi-aquatic lifestyle.
