garyc Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I had a killer day out on the Brazos...I'll be posting more, but wanted to start with this tooth. I got really excited when I picked it up thinking it was bison. Then I saw no stylid and got even more excited thinking it may be camel. Then I started looking at pictures and considering horse lower cheek tooth. The first picture shows one side that I think has sheered off. Now I am just not sure at all.

PrehistoricFlorida Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 That's big. I would begin by comparing to Camelops. Nice find!! www.PrehistoricFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyc Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Awesome! That was my first guess when I saw no stylid.. but I got scared and talked myself out of it. It is a beast of a tooth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichW9090 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Yep, big camel, likely Camelops. Nice! The plural of "anecdote" is not "evidence". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
