21032 - Top Rare 2.24 Inch Pappocetus lugardi (Whale Ancestor) Incisor Rooted Tooth Eocene Carboniferous Plants †Tasbacka spPappocetus is a protocetid and a large amphibious aquatic carnivore. Pappocetus is also an ancestor of Basilosaurus. Rare specimen from an early evolutionary stage of the modern whale.
