A family of Sharpteeth appear in "The Lonely Journey" as the secondary antagonists of the episode, though they only have a small role.
History
Chomper encounters the baby of the family after hiding from Red Claw during the Fast Biter stampede. Chomper, being on a kick of attempting to make the Sharpteeth of the Mysterious Beyond "friendly", tries to teach it how to play catch. It does not understand Chomper, likely because he was talking in Leaf Eaters' language, and it bites his tail and runs off.
Chomper, realizing that making Sharpteeth "friendly" is harder than he thought, is about to leave, when he hears the roar of the baby Sharptooth's parents. The baby's parents, along with the baby itself, begin to chase Chomper. Chomper is able to evade them by ducking into a canyon corner while the family runs past him, still searching for the young Tyrannosaurus.
Trivia
- It is unknown why, unlike the Fast Biters, Chomper didn't catch himself speaking Leaf Eater and attempt to talk to these Sharpteeth in their native language.
- There are a number of differing opinions among fans as to what these sharpteeth are supposed to represent, in light of there being no official word on the matter. Metriacanthosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus are popular unofficial identifications.
