(Internal #G376-276) You are bidding on One 3-3/4" natural, genuine American Alligator tooth (Alligator Mississipiensis) from a Louisiana gator farm. Tooth is measured with a flexible ruler from the tip to the highest part of the top. Any hole or U cut out on the upper back of the tooth is a natural occurrence. Tooth has no cracks. This is the exact tooth you will receive. A great gift to the gator lover or to yourself! Gators are controlled by government issued permits in Louisiana. The hides are sold for leather products, the meat is eaten locally or prepared as jerky, the guts go into the cat and dog food industry ("animal byproducts") and the heads and feet (freeze dried and coated in polyurethane) and teeth are sold to commercial stores so 100% of the animal is recycled. Gators have three sets of teeth, one inside the other (like Tupperware) that's why they're hollow; teeth are shed periodically. Click on our Store tag for MANY more weird items for sale!
