Back on the Peace River yesterday where there was no other human being in sight.  Found a number of the usual shark teeth, couple of horse teeth, partial deer antler, deer astragulus, mammoth and mastodon frags, turtle scutes, along with two tiny teeth that I have yet to identify.  Searched on the forum and on line for anything similar but had no luck.  Hopefully, someone will recognize these.

First up is what appears to be the crown of a tooth a little less than 1/2" square.  The bite surface is made up of several "bumps" and the underside of the crown looks to me like it is a button with four holes.

Next up is a thin tooth that looks like it is ,issuing one of two roots.  Did the best I could with the photos.  Hope they are sufficient.

Thank you Harry!  I had looked at Pecarry for the first but failed to find any good images.  Yours leave no question in my mind.  The pig looks like a great match too.
