Jaw bone id bear or wolf ?

Recommended Posts

Found and preserved with clear coat.  Don’t find many jaw bones where I explore. Any ideas ?  A lot of bison bones found in same area. Front part of jaw is gone.

Looks like pig/boar to me. Let's see what others think.

Pig - Sus scrofa. Likely modern.

Looked up and flat head peccary was found in Texas only extinct pig like species I can find.  No telling if this is that or not, probably modern but Looks to be very old though and dug it out of layer in bank that I find most bison bones.
