Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate! Thanks to all of you who try to help the less educated such as myself (at least in this field of study). I occasionally come across the remnants of back-office dumpsters from ancient dental offices where mammals would go to get teeth pulled. Ok, joking.. but seriously, I’ve reviewed some helpful threads on tooth identification but I’m not confident in what I see. 1) do my photos give enough of a view to say with confidence what they belonged to? 2) can you help me identify these? Let’s count 1-6 starting with upper left. Don’t worry about identifying the hand, that’s mine. I think #1 upper left is camel. I don’t know about #2. I think #3 (upper right) is bison? Thanks in advance! These are all from Johnson County and Tarrant County TX. Mostly Tarrant County.

I have been going through some of my small fish mash material (Sub 2mm) from Cretaceous marine material from NW Queensland. The material is mainly made up of crushed fish bones and scales.(Scale squares are 5mm x5mm) I have found a few unknow bones if anyone could help with a ID that would be great these are likely to be from fish. I also have a small unknown sharks tooth. Also there is a strange tooth which I'm unsure what it is from. Lastly I have included some of bramble shark teeth and small fish jaw frag.

Hi everyone, I went to Flag Ponds in Calvert County yesterday & found this interesting needle-like tooth. It is 2.5 cm long. It has a channel up one side that is just barely wide enough to get the edge of my fingernail into. Any idea what it is? I do love finding the oddball fossils! Thanks. Update, I uploaded a different photo. You would never know that this is sitting directly under a 60 watt bulb. Imagine a "crying emoji" sitting at the end of this sentence!!

Here are a few that I have no idea what kind if shark teeth these are. Thank you for any suggestions!

We put in at Boat ramp near Canoe Outpost Gardner and traveled up a little bit past Limestone Creek. Found some teeth in the Peace River. That I have thus far been unable to identify. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
