Jaw Fragment with Tooth Root


Paleoworld-101

Description: This interesting piece is a fragment of jaw section with a tooth root in one of the sockets. I collected this merely thinking it to be another piece of turtle shell but was pleasantly surprised upon further inspection back in Australia. I have no idea whether it is crocodilian or mammalian. Any ideas?
