Just playing with my camera ,would like to show off some new and old finds. the kids have raided my sharks teeth, the arrow heads are recent ,please give opinions on the axe looking stone and the round stone ,my wife says the round stone is just a rock ,but it was "worked " quite a bit, and I read they used a sling and had pictures of similar rocks ,I also picked up one that appears to have an image of a deer , still cleaning that one and half is really weathered.

BS: If you find a shark tooth it is not likely to be found on the ocean bottom or in your scoop.
It would most likely be in your bottom especially if you are wearing their favorite color(s): Oh Boy Orange /Yum Yum Yellow.

I've always wanted to find a shark tooth,just one, but the area of Florida we go to isn't known for them washing up on the beach and I'm NOT going in the water.

Bulls and tigers are notorious on all beaches for attacks. Just last year we had a big tiger hit a tourist on my home beach. She lived but unfortunately lost her leg. Could've been a lot worse if it wasn't for the first responders. Majority of attacks down here and the world over are mistaken identity. Just so happens the bulls and tigers are super aggressive so if you happen to be in a schooling area, mistakes can and do happen. Aside from tigers and bulls we have a lot of shark species which migrate throughout the year. These migrations include hundreds of sharks so the chances of getting hit during those times of the year greatly increase. Spinners and lemons are usually all over the place. I've been out surfing during the migrations and have shared a wave on more than one occasion with several spinner sharks. I've lived and surfed all over the world and you just have to always be aware that in the ocean...you are not at the top of the food chain.
