Description:

The shark Otodus obliquus lived between the late Paleocene and the Eocene, between 40 and 60 million years ago.
As all the sharks its skeleton was made of cartilage and this is the motive for which only teeth and some fossilized vertebrae arrived to us.
The Otodus obliquus was a great raider whose dimensions arrived to around 9-10 m of length and 15 tons of weight.
Fossil rests have been found (teeth and vertebrae) from excavations effected in Africa, Europe, Asia and North America, situation that makes to suppose that this shark was largely diffused in the oceans of 60 million years ago.
Currently most teeth of this enormous shark originate from the mines of Morocco. The teeth of the Otodus obliquus have triangular form, they are wide (up to 8-10 cm) with smooth and sharp.
