Discover and Preserve Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Hello all, Attached are some pics of a tooth we found in the Peace River FL. Measuring tape is in inches and cm. I have a guess what animal it is from (possibly a first lower premolar) but want to see what some more educated members of the forum think. Thanks!

hoffy Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I think it's a taper P2. I don't know how to link it on my phone, but if you search for tapir and my name from last week you'll see it and compare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meganeura Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Agreed, it's definitely a Tapir. Can't speak to the location though. Jealous of the find, that's incredible! Fossils? I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discover and Preserve Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Thanks for the replies guys! I was thinking it was a Tapir as well, just wanted to see what the forum members thought. I love this community! Brent 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
