Possible Mammoth Tooth?

Recommended Posts

Thank you for looking at my fossils.  I think that I found several different fossils that may be partial Mammoth teeth.  

 

Editing to add location: Everything was found at the beach  in North Carolina  -- South Eastern NC - wrightsville beach.

 

I will seperate the photos so that it won't be confusing.

 

THANK YOU!!!! :)

#1 might be Equus. I can’t help with the others, sorry. Where did you find all of these?

 

Edit to add: I see your tags say North Carolina and beaches, if you could provide the beach that you found them in, it would be helpful. :)

Thank You!

Location information is always very important to identifying fossils.

Nice Finds! I'm only familiar with shark's teeth, but you can do a google image search to see pictures of mammoth teeth. Good Luck.

Agree with what Fruitbat said above, although i'm in doubt about nr. 2 instead of nr. 3. But maybe that's what he meant to say too..

 

Item number 3 vaguely shows the horse-identifying cue at the bottom of the first picture.

 

Number 2 doesn't have alot of features to identify it. Could be the mammoth you were looking for, could be anything else ;)

#2 reminds Me of sloth.

Me too. My first impression. Fairly certain all else are Equine.
