This tooth was previously posted in the trip section with my description as a possible modern pig tooth. There was a suggestion that it could be something else- large headed llama. With that in mind and not being able to nail it down myself here it is for evaluation. With roots the height is 24mm. The crown is 10mm in height and 11mm wide. The widest point on the crown surface is 3mm. just realized the ruler in the photos is showing inches.

I Was sorting through some old rocks i had collected when i was young and somewhere i had picked up this tooth. i think it is fossilized ... or just dense... but no animals come immediately to mind. best i can guess it came from south east Kansas somewhere off of the family farm, good chance it came off of a gravel bar there. i don't know why it keeps popping in my head but i keep thinking pig but i really have no reasoning i don't even know what pig teeth look like. anybody recognize it?
