< 4. Prehistoric shark teeth which exceed the length of 15 cm in
How did it happen that a prehistoric shark teeth which exceed the length of 15 centimeters, died? There was not a single being who could not break Megalodon, but, apparently, his disappearance influenced climate change.
Megalodon length was more than 20 meters, and for the life he succeeds approximately 20,000 teeth, and otraschivaya losing them in the same way as do exist now sharks. Megalodon is regarded by many paleontologists as the most powerful creature ever existed on earth.
< 5. The animal with the largest number of teeth and the lowest number of limbs
Do snails teeth greater than that of any other animal, however, their "teeth", this is not quite the same teeth, which we imagine. Despite the fact that they have thousands of teeth, snails can not chew their food. This is because they use a radula that look like ribbons studded with teeth for grinding their food and its preparation to assimilate.
Throughout the life of the mollusk, these tiny teeth blunted drop out and replaced with new, sharp teeth.

This "feat" - proof of how sharp their teeth are adapted for tearing pieces of flesh
. As a rule, piranha teeth have a triangular shape, which provides better adhesion and allows you to easily piranhas tear prey into pieces. They are famous for the fact that gnaw the prey, leaving behind only a pile of bones.

< 8. Whales, in which to place the teeth grow hair
The guys from the program "How it works» (How Stuff Works), had a great analogy that will serve us in the discussion of the teeth of baleen whales. A set of teeth is more like a huge mustache, located in the mouth. And, just as in most human mustache, mustache going on whale food. Thus, the whale opens its mouth, absorbs the water and passes it through his mustache, and
9 krill and other treats left in his mouth.. On the palate, the convict fish teeth are arranged, similar to the human
Fish-convict (Sheepshead) a widespread fish in North America and it hunts many anglers. But what people do not notice, so that's how strange teeth of this fish. Teeth, human-like, which have this kind of fish, strange in themselves, but they still have a number of teeth and on the palate.

Unfortunately, a look at a dolphin and determine its age a little bit more difficult than you imagine that. And while their teeth are excellent indicators of their age, in order to determine the age you have to pry the dolphin one tooth and cut it in half. In the teeth of dolphins are present growth rings, exactly the same, which can be found at cut down a tree, it allows scientists to calculate the approximate age of the dolphins.
