Florida terrestrial tooth for ID please

Recommended Posts

Found this today and not sure who it’s from. It was in two pieces ,there’s a tiny bit of the occlusal surface missing and it’s heavily worn but hopeful to get an ID . Is a single tooth with half of the mandible left but was my personal find of the day. It’s 1 1/2 in tall from root to crown and 1 1/8 inche across the crown. I was thinking bear and if so will be more than happy but would like to get an idea of the original owner . Thanks for looking :)

Thanks Harry, the occlusal is very worn and difficult to get a decent picture

Poor Chris, was the wife fuming standing in the doorway with a Mammoth femur in hand ready to bop you on the head.
