Rhode Island Mastodon Tooth Identification
Mastodon Tooth is a realistic Rhode Island fossil profile built around cusped molar from browsing mastodons found in peats, gravels, and marl. In this state, success usually comes from learning slate roadcuts, glacial beaches, and fossil shell banks, then timing runoff, reservoir drawdown, surf cuts, or road work that exposes fresh fossil-bearing rock instead of hunting blindly.
