Chesapeake Bay Mag, Megalodon Jaws Being Rebuilt at Calvert Marine Museum
The Calvert Marine Museum has lots of fascinating exhibits, but if there is one thing they’re known for, it’s the giant, prehistoric shark jaw they have on display.
Well, that jaw has been dismantled and the megalodon it belongs to is getting a new set of chompers. With a series of new discoveries made (many by CMM’s own paleontologists) about shark teeth, the jaw is begin upgraded with much more historically accurate reproductions.
Truly a remarkable beast; I'm just astonished that I can (very rarely) find their teeth scattered about on our beach.
Calvert Marine Museum is a pretty good resource for us.
