I was thinking that it looks like a horn also.
-
I wonder if this could be a broken horn...
-
Root. Still packed with hard clay.
-
Yeah I know it’s hard to ID from photographs at times, I find so many teeth like this one all sorts of shapes and sizes I’m having a hard time identifying them all. I did narrow down a few of them to enchodus teeth, sawfish rostral & xiphactinus fish
-
I do not see predation here. Looks like natural breakage showing geodized interior.
-
+1 for worm tubes. I can only say Hamulus though, I’m not familiar enough to get more specific than that. Not sure on the other ones though.
-
Can We see a picture straight on to the broken "root"?

Used in the Civil War at ground level for maximum destruction. -

One more pic. Had to use lower resolution.

Don't Fossil Hunt Adjacent to Gun Ranges
Peace river rat replied to CplCoprolite's topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
The best fossil day I ever had was right next to a gun range. Ranges that are operated properly have high berms and strict rules that ALL ROUNDS MUST IMPACT THE BERM the range master will kick you off the property and bar you for life, on most ranges. You should file a report with the county Sheriff. I am often tempted to take my pistol when fossil hunting, but very rarely do. I settle for my David sling, a 3 ounce rock at 100 mph, is comparable to a medium bore, pistol round in impact energy. -
Hi guys so I have this Hebertella occidentalis specimen I collected yesterday from the Credit River at Streetsville, Mississauga, Ontario, which belongs to the Upper Member of the Georgian Bay Formation. Do these look like predation marks? There are also what appears to some crystallized grains inside these marks and I think they could be some sort of calcite. Sorry for the noisy grain of the image, but I hope this will help.

OK. File size too large to post more than one pic at a time.
-
More pics on angles would help, certainly looks to be a tooth of some kind.
-
Welcome to TFF! Will need pictures from all sides to make an ID (please include a scale). It is not a mammoth tooth though.

I found this fossil on a gravel covered sand bar in a stream in central Iowa. I think it is a mammoth tooth but the shape seems quite unusual. The circular root is small compared to the rest of the tooth. Can someone confirm? This is my first post but I have found lots of interesting stuff in just three trips including an awesome mastodon tooth! Lots of questions too. Thank you.

The first picture shows very nice worm tubes. Hamulus squamosus, I think.
-
I get these stands from there. Great for the Riker mounts.

Thanks, Tim. It looks a bit better under a white rather than yellow light. I definitely need a new lamp.
-
Me and my husband found some really cool items in an creek in central al but we are puzzled as to what these things are. We found lots of sharks teeth and echinoids.

Incredible work, my friend.
