I got this a while back, it's an oreodont haw section. I am seeking more information on it. My guess was Merycoidodon just based on pictures. Here's a bunch of pictures, I'm hoping to get as specific on taxon as possible, it says on the label it's from Chadron deposits, white river formation, 20 miles northeast of lush, Wyoming.

I would put it at Merycoidodon culbertsoni

 

@jpc may be a good one to ask though...I believe he may know a LITTLE about the Wyoming oreodonts. ;)

I agree- Merycoidodon.

I was thinking Culbertsoni, I'm very happy to know I'm learning! Thanks for all the help guys!
