A fossil hunter aged just six has unearthed a four-inch tooth from one of the world’s largest prehistoric sharks.
Sammy Shelton spotted the giant canine from a megalodon dating back up to 20 million years while walking with his family on the beach at Bawdsey, Suffolk.
Only a handful of teeth from the 50 to 60ft-long creatures – three times the size of great white sharks – are found in the UK every year.
