Bobby Rico Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Welcome to the forum.I think better pictures in focus are needed. Also photos for different angels next to a tape measure and one next to a size reference. Cheers Bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creek - Don Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I found this information on the Internet. on the 3rd tooth from the right (which is adult molar 1), you can see the stylid on the side of the tooth. It appears as a little "donut" of enamel at mid-tooth. The presence of this isolated stylid distinguishes bison and cow molars from camel teeth. The overall larger size of the teeth and the more robust enamel, including that of the stylid, are features that are used to distinguish loose bison teeth from cow teeth.
