Natalala Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Hey everybody! Thought I'd ask you all what you think this is. It was found 100 feet away from the St Charles River south of Pueblo, Colorado. Found half showing on top of the sand. At first I thought this was a shark tooth, but after looking through hundreds of online pictures of shark teeth, I can't find a single picture that looks identical. This is also very porous and lighter than a bison molar. It's shaped like a shark tooth with the front having two sides that angle up to the middle, and the back being one side. Only half of the top of it has a porous "root" and the other half curves down and has no rooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeschWhat Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Welcome to the forum. It looks like a piece of bone, but it will take someone more knowledgeable than me to tell you what kind. I'm sure the really smart people will chime in soon. 2 Lori www.areallycrappystory.com/fossils www.facebook.com/fossilpoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peat Burns Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I'm getting a hoof core vibe from this one. Let's see what others say. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I agree with Peat, looking like hoof core to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalala Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 You're awesome! A search online shows that is no doubt a hoof core. HUGE THANKS! Thank you thank you! This all is the start of my learning process, being new to finding things in Colorado. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
