FossilW Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Hello to all this is my first post, my friend found this tooth in his fathers basement( his father was a farmer) and it was presumably found on the property that is all I know. I thought it was a moose tooth or something like that but I am far from an expert and I would like some options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 That's an epiphysis from the distal end of a tibia I think. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilus Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I believe this is the end of a Artiodactyl tibia (bovine?). It looks like it came off a still growing animal and the growth plate hadn't sealed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
