This is a VERY collectible shark fossil. It is a fossil whale bone (rib) with obvious Carcharocles megalodon bites. This rib was chomped on by the extinct Giant White Shark, Carcharocles megalodon. The ''Meg'' was the largest shark that ever lived, growing to over 60 feet long. This beast could easily shred a whale in no time.

This rib has distinct cut marks made by the feeding shark. But the unique feature of this fossil is the large grooves made from the serrations of a Meg tooth (see close-up #2). There is no doubt what shark made this obvious gash! This is one of the few documented examples of actual predation of the infamous ''Meg''. This is a very rare fossil with an ancient story associated with it.
