Horse canine?

You learn something new every day. I was pretty sure horses did not have canine teeth until I saw this post and looked it up.

Too my surprise, some horses do have canine teeth.

I can't help on the ID but at least I learned something new.

I think it is not a horse (or llama/camel) canine. It lacks the pronounced curvature. SEE http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/52991-lower-mammal-canine/

So we have a small straight canine or incisor that is found in Poland.. Another photo focusing on the tip may help.

Wow, I may have to eat my words -- your 2nd new photo has the exact ridge on the tip that is on Horse "wolf" canines.

But is so small compared to the ones I find in Florida... I believe that the original horse developed in the Americas -- Did you have three_toed horses in Europe? Hmmmm. :zzzzscratchchin:
