dbrake40 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 More river finds in Minnesota. I'm fairly certain this is a mammoth tooth fragment. My buddy, (again!) see my previous post, found this on a gravel bar. I have to say this has me very excited to go hunt with him. The size is 6.5” X 3.75” X 1.5” and the layers fluoresce under UV light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnbuckeye Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Looks mammoth to me!! Great find. Was it found on one of our larger rivers? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymig Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Sure is. Great find. Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. led zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrake40 Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Doesn’t it look like part of the jaw is still attached? In the fist pic you can see its like there are tooth roots sticking thru some other material… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbrake40 Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Does anyone know if its possible to age (approximate) a mammoth by the number/spacing of enamel ridge-plates in its teeth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
