Hi, I don't think this is a fossil looks like some kind of tooth to me but could be wrong, searched the internet but couldn't find anything like it! Could anyone help identify what it is? I found it in Lyme Regis yesterday. Thanks!

Almost a bear, but no beer.

Ursus one think, but looks like a Sus:)

I'm wondering if can't be deciduous.

Yup, pig molar. Some of Lyme's old trash dumps were located near the cliffs edge and were washed into the sea years ago when that particular cliff section collapsed. This is the reason there's so much trash to be found on the beach there amongst the fossils right now, including sub-recent bone.
