Fossil teeth of Enchodus sp. In perfect state of conservation.
Enchodus is an extinct genus of saltwater fish. It resembled a salmon, but with one big difference, it had four huge teeth in the front of its jaw. They were so big that he might not even be able to close his mouth, like some modern deep-sea fish.
