ckam888 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I found this unusual little guy in my screen at GMR. I don't think it is fossilized, but I was hoping someone out there recognized the tooth. My guess is racoon, badger or something like that. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shellseeker Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I love finding these. Usually I think that that might be peccary molars... those would be fossils. Generally they end up to be a lower m1 domestic pig tooth .... Hopefully yours is peccary. 2 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
