Fossilatido Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Apologies for double post. I accidentally posted in the wrong forums. I found this tooth in the water on a small beach. Any help with identification would be appreciated. Happy to load more pics, if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Welcome to TFF! It looks bovide. We really need to see picture of the chewing surface. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Fossilatido Posted August 30, 2017 Author Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) Oh, strange. I immediately thought it was a cows tooth. Ha. I posted in the correct place now and I did post a pick of chewing surface there... Oh! Or it looks like this is the right one. I did post a pic ofchewing surface now.
