Bovine teeth?


Peace river rat

Recommended Posts

Found all 3 of these under the peace river bridge, after Irma. All within a ft of each other, no other associated bones. Don't seem quite fossilized, cow? Thanks!

It is real hard to saddle one too.

Tiny, saddles are required! OR, a trilobite, enlarger, or saddle shrinker! I used to be a tattoo artist, I should draw one for my avatar!

I think you’re correct with bovid and probably recent given the way you found them and they seem a little lighter colored than typical peace river pieces, I’m sure Harry will be along to confirm or correct :)

Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there!

The puzzeling part was, the close proximity, looked very close for other bones, nothing! Even though not fossils, still a cool find. Also, first associated find, ever!

No, you're right -- bovid, likely a cow.  That is a strange tooth on the right in the image -- a deciduous tooth.  The other two appear to be adult teeth, the left one unerupted.  This was a youngish cow, perhaps swept away in high water, or perhaps taken by a 'gator.
