Teeth!!!

Not mine. Mine are perfectly fine, thank you very much. But there's a shark out there somewhere that isn't doing quite so well I think. I have two of its teeth. Well, the tips anyway :D. Judging by the size of the bite, it wasn't too small a specimen I think.These two were bits left in one of our streamer devices, completely buried! I wonder what it thought when it went for the bird. Ah, that looks like a nice big fish! Bright red and yellow! The thwack from the wing the next second, which is what might have caused the broken teeth, probably changed its mind :). Of course, what with shark teeth being dished out by the bucket loads on 'conveyor belts', it might not really notice the difference :D.
