I was literally playing Jackbox last night and the task was to sort animals by number of teeth. Apparently whales have zero "teeth" but snails have thousands of microscopic "teeth"? ok biologists, get fucked.

If I cant knock them out with my fists they dont count as teeth .

That actually a good way to tell if it's baleen or not baleen, and therefore a tooth.

So if I can’t knock em out with my fist it’s baleen?

I think this is exactly how the scientists test for baleen.

So bears don't have teeth because you couldn't beat a bear in a fight?

I could totally defeat a bear 1v1
