Sjfriend Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 From an estate sale that I acquired some rock boxes. Here are some teeth. The only tag that IDd them was .... wait for it.... teeth! Any ideas? Again, these don't go with my collection but would be nice to ID a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleoNoel Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Maybe peccary? Just venturing a guess. Here's what I found online 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymig Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I agree - Peccary. Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. led zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossillarry Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 These specimens are from the Eocene,most likely Wyoming but could be New Mexico. They are all from Perissodactyls (odd toed hoofed mammals).The top specimen an m1 or m2 is probably the horse "Hyracotherium"= eohippus if I can judge by the size of your fingers. The second specimen an m2 an 3 is probably also from "Hyracotherium" but differs in some ways from typical teeth that I have of that genus. Very nice specimens. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
