West Virginia Mastodon Tooth Identification

Mastodon Tooth is a realistic West Virginia fossil profile built around cusped molar from browsing mastodons found in peats, gravels, and marl. In this state, success usually comes from learning Devonian shales, Mississippian limestones, and glacial gravels, then timing runoff, reservoir drawdown, surf cuts, or road work that exposes fresh fossil-bearing rock instead of hunting blindly.
