Curious about a tooth found

Recommended Posts

Evening all, we found this tooth about a year and a half ago in the shallow waters of Duck Lake in Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada, just a couple of inches below the sand. I have no clue what it is but I am guessing some sort of tooth - curious if anyone has any ideas.

I have added one additional photo in the comments section as I couldn't make the pic any smaller to put in this original post. Thanks and let me know if more info is needed.

@Peat Burns is correct, a deer hoof core. 

 

Cheers,

@Brett Breakin' Rocks, @Peat Burns, thanks so much for this info. I would never have guessed (or even known that these exist!) that this was a deer hoof core. Much appreciated

Sure ... my first was a stained and darkened hoof core (aka. Distal phalanx) found in a creek. At the time I thought it was some sort of odd claw. Those deer will fool you every time. Haha... 

 

Thank the gods for TFF to set me straight.

 

Cheers
