Kristina Scott who is a female scuba diver who was diving in the water off of a coast in Venice Florida on Sunday May18 made a discovery of a six inch long megalodon tooth. The megalodons were huge sharks that reached 60 feet long and had around 276 teeth. The megalodons became extinct around 3,5 million years ago. I have no idea if Kristen will be rewarded for making a discovery of finding a tooth of an extinct animal or not. Link is msn.com/en-us/news/us/...

That would inspire me to get out of the ocean. Whether that thing is history or not.

I wonder what happened to the rest of the 276 teeth, and if she dives there again she might find another one, or more, nearby.
