The dugong<\/strong> <\/em>is a medium-sized marine mammal, also known as the "sea cow", "sea pig" or "sea camel". It appeared in the Eocene epoch, 50 million years ago, and is still alive today. Along with the manatee, to which it is related, the dugong is part of the order Sirenia, so named because it is said that the first sailors who encountered these animals thought they were mermaids. Unlike the manatee, the dugong lives only in salt water.<\/p>\n

The dugong has a large, cylindrical body covered with thick, smooth, dark grey skin. It can reach a length of 2.6 meters and a weight of 300 kg. The mammal's body is covered in short hairs that allow tactile sensory interpretation of its environment. These hairs are most developed around the mouth. The dugong's mouth features a large, horseshoe-shaped upper lip equipped with a very strong mobile muscle, which aids in feeding on seagrass and, occasionally, invertebrates.<\/p>\n

Authentic specimen of Dugong fossilized tooth from the USA (likely the species Metaxytherium floridanum<\/em>), between 10,000 and 1 million years old, found in the Peace River bed in North Florida. The product comes in a round plastic display box. An excellent gift for any curiosity and paleontology enthusiast!<\/p>\n

Due to the age of the specimen, the tooth may have imperfections and repaired areas (glued sections) that are perfectly normal and inevitable, but it is, overall, in good condition. We invite you to carefully study the product photos to identify the natural imperfections and any possible repairs to the specimen.<\/p>\n
