A great day with a good friend. At the very end , he found a jaw segment with 2 teeth. I do not know what it is...Only have photos I think the Jaw is 33 mm with each tooth about 11-12 mm. I have a number of interesting finds.. and little time to research. 1) A bivalve transformed to Silica 2) Botryoidal bubbles. I guess there is a little Druzy there also. These are just fun to find... 3) A lower left jaw m3... 4) A toe bone.. looks similar to Mastodon, but they can not be this small, can they? 24 x 20x 19 mm 5) A carnassial, maybe a lower m1. Look at the lines in the chewing surface of the 2nd photo. 6) A very unusual tooth or tusk fragment. The hollow core might mean whale or Alligator... Thanks for looking. Any identifications greatly appreciated. Jack

A couple of my friends are on vacation and have taken photos of this tooth they found in the ocean. I unfortunately do not have much knowledge in mamal teeth and was wondering if anyone knew what this was. Unfortunately they don't have anything to give for size refrence or the age of the tooth in question. I apologize.

A friend, Megan, found this bit of jaw bone with three teeth on the beach in northern Florida (Nassau County). I suspect it is peccary, with three roots on at least two of the teeth, but I wanted to get a more informed opinion. Thanks in advance for the help.

Fossil Hunting Trip, Judith River Fmtn, Montana
WyomingRocks! posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Hello, I just had a trip to a co-workers place in Montana that I have looked at before with some good finds. It had been several years since my last visit and I was excited about possible new finds. In the sites I had found before, my dad, brother and I discovered some decent specimens. My dad did not find his Tyrannosaur tooth he wanted but he did find a couple of very nice raptor teeth. My brother found a few nice teeth but no theropod ones. As soon as we started looking, within a minute, I found a nice sized Aublysodon or Daspletosaur tooth. We looked for the day and then they had to head home. I went back a few days later to try and explore for new spots and found several. I found several theropod teeth, a couple of mammal teeth, crocodilian teeth, lots of bones, but nothing major. I have attached in-situ pics and individual pics for everyone to see. P.S., thanks for any help in an ID!- 12 replies

Just pulled this tooth out of the Neuse River in Eastern North Carolina. I have no clue what it is I'm new to this and couldn't say for certain what kind of animal it came from upon researching images of various ones. Please let me know if you can tell what it is!

Any ideas on the id of these Indonesian Teeth ? Mammal incisors? Wolf? Bear?
Adie_uk posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi I got these teeth with some other fossil and i just dont know what they are from. They are Pleistocene I believe going of the other fossils from this area. (Indonesia, Java) Teeth numbered 1 and 2 are crocodilian, i know that much, they are clear to see and still have the serrations down either side... I am not sure if tooth 3 is also crocodilian? but maybe the surface/ details of the tooth has been polished (a real bad habbit they have over there) but teeth 4,5 & 6 are different. Their colours are very different, but again, I'm not sure. I think they have been polished also. I did have a tooth a while back that was ID'd as bear (species unverified) not sure if these are bear, wolf, or something else? It's quite hard researching fossils from there, so would be great to hear your views., Many thanks in advance. sorry took these without scale, they measure largest 130mm and the smallest 70mm -
Hello ! For my first post I want to show you some mammal teeth. I don't have a lot of informations about them, probably from North Africa. I don't know their age but all are mineralized so not that recent. I can add the sizes if it's very necessary. Some of them are very characteristics so I hope that an ID is possible. There are I think Rhinocerotidae, maybe Camelidae and others... I'm not good with mammal, all the infos are welcome ! Thanks for your help !

Hi y'all. While visiting a local rock shop, I saw these mammal teeth in a tray labeled "shark teeth," along with actual shark teeth. I wasn't sure of what they were and decided to take them home. Their proximity to another tray of fossil cetacean teeth and their rough similarity (crown-to-root ratio) made me think they could be odontocete. Thanks for any help! @Boesse@Harry Pristis

Hello again everyone! 4 teeth in 2 hours out of my spot in the Peace river, Florida. part of the Bone Vally formation. The first one (far left I am pretty sure its a nice horse tooth. The second (curved) could also be a horse toothbut has these 3 "ribs" (second pic) I guess you would call them that make me think it could be something else. The 3rd from the left I think another horse tooth just broken and the far right, I have no idea. Thought maybe a dolphin but I looked at pictures and the ones I seen dont have 2 roots like this one. Perhaps a mammal of some kind. Excited as always to hear what you think, thank you! The far left tooth is approximately 2" (50mm) this should be good reference for the others.

Thanks everyone for running such a great forum. Went on first fossil hunting trip in Manasota Key FL (just south of Venice beach) and got a bunch of sharks teeth including some nice slightly larger ones while diving, and was able to roughly identify them from your posts. Also have some not shark / ray teeth found washed up on the beach. I wrote down the best guess I could figure but am really unsure. Appreciate any thoughts! Thanks!

Hello everyone, this is Trevor. I have been meaning to post this for a long time and finally got around to doing it. I would appreciate help identifying these finds. Also, stay tuned I have a trip report coming out later this week, probably Friday. What type of ammonite is this? (middle)

Hello, I'm a new member to the Fossil Forum, could someone please help me ID these teeth? I found the larger, blacker tooth this morning on a sandbar of a creek in Linn County, Iowa. My wife found the smaller tooth on the same little sandbar about a year ago. I have found several bison teeth in the many other locations I have walked up and down this river, but these two have been stumping me. These are the only teeth we have found so far that still have roots intact which leads me to believe that they did not travel very far in the creek. These may or may not be from the same animal, but two strange teeth from the same spot makes me wonder if that could be the case. The smaller one has a stylid, but even the small one is thicker than the bison teeth that I have. Two photos compare size to a modern bison jaw. Small tooth: Width: 26mm Thickness at top: 16mm Enamel height: 32mm Large tooth: Width:29mm Thickness at top: 27mm Enamel height: 14mm

I found some interesting teeth in the Rattlesnake Creek, Florida matrix that member Sacha sent to me. Mainly Miocene-Pleistocene. This matrix has proven to be very productive and has wonderful preservation. This first tooth looks to be from a small mammal, and may be recent. It has 3 roots. Does anyone recognize it? There was this item as well that looks like a bead And I really want to know what this tooth is. All help and suggestions welcome Thanks for looking.
