Nice teeth! I have always wanted to get scuba certified just so I could search for stuff like that!

This stuff is all from wading/screenwashing.

you dont have to get certified to dive the rivers, alot of the river divers I know have never been certified and they burn over 100 tanks a year, and dont have a problem getting them filled either

Nice fossils, you have worn the Peace out huh?

If you mean am I ready for new challenges, then yes I am! I still have yet to find a perfect front Meg tooth. All of mine have chips or are brokes.

Uncertified river divers? Wow, that's ballsy. That's the most dangerous environment around, isn't it? dark water, obstructions, gators, glass, snapping turtles. But I know that's how you find the best stuff.

Ballsy? I'd call it foolish. It also puts in jeopardy anyone who is conned into filling the scuba tanks. Ah well . . . scuba-divers are like any subset of the population: some are prudent, some take unnecessary risks.

Hi Harry! Mind taking a look at those teeth above, especially the incisors? I bet I got some of those ID's wrong. Check the cameloid and horse pics. Much appreciated!

I think you've got the IDs correct. In the third image, the two teeth on the left appear to be Equus horse (a newly erupted cheek tooth and a well-worn incisor). Good work!
