Sharptooth
There are many Sharpteeth, or carnivorous creatures in The Land Before Time. They are usually the main antagonists of the movies, sequels, and series, while a select few others, such as Chomper, are protagonistic. The most common voice for Sharpteeth is Frank Welker. Others include Danny Mann, Pete Sepenuk, and Rob Paulsen.
This is a list of the various Sharpteeth seen throughout the series, in order of appearance.

The Time of the Great Giving[]

Journey Through the Mists[]
Ichy and Dil - An Ichthyornis and Deinosuchus who side with each other to catch prey. The two don't like each other much, but stay together because of their handicaps: Dil's being sight and Ichy's being size. Though they are possibly sharpteeth, they are categorized in a different term.
