Paleontologists argue over just how this species of shark uses this tooth whorl on its bottom jaw. They do know tough shelled creatures like ammonites, cameroceras and other nautiloids were a very plentiful prey species. This tooth whorl had to be a specialized "utensil" per say, to open these shelled creatures up and expose their soft inners.
