This tooth was in my carnivore box without a label. I would like an ID so that I can add it to the next round of auctions to benefit the forum. @Harry Pristis I'd appreciate your input. The tooth is 31 mm wide at the gum line. Thanks

Attached are photos of 4 small items that I would appreciate some help with. They have all been screen sifted from the Santa Fe river. From left to right: o Strange tooth with an irregular enamel crown and a "root" having axial grooves around it's full circumference. 50 mm long o Calcaneum 32 mm long o Calcaneum 41 mm long o Unknown claw (or something) damaged at "root" so no facets present. 44 mm long I know it's a stretch, but I appreciate the time.

I've switched my hunting from the Peace to the Santa Fe for the balance or the summer and into the fall. I do not find nearly as many fossils, but the water remains cool and clear. I found this jaw section on one of my last trips and decided to keep it. I don't usually keep broken bone fragments, but this looked interesting. If I'm reading it right, the last molar would have been round in cross section, while the 2 adjacent molars were oval in cross section. I assumed sloth and the size is about the same as the teeth I have, but the channels are straight. My sloth teeth are all curved, so they would not fit in the channels. I figured @Harry Pristis would provide a suggestion, but invite all takers who want to try an ID.

I brought this premolar back from The Santa Fe this week. I'm assuming it's from a medium sized cat, but I am almost always completely wrong on my ID's so I would appreciate input from anyone, but especially @Harry Pristis and @Shellseeker. The tooth measures 21mm long and 9mm thick. Thanks for your time.

Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster haha. I’m still kind of new to this so sorry if this is a super obvious ID, but I was wondering what kind of tooth this is exactly. I was thinking crocodile, but it seems to have a slightly different shape so I wasn’t sure. I found it at Ginnie Sprints in High Springs on the Santa Fe River in Florida. It’s about 2 1/4” long. Thank you in advance for your help!

I found this 1/2" by 1/2" jaw section while screen sifting in the Santa Fe this week. The tiny teeth along the jaw are fish or insectivore like (pin like with no grinding surface), but the hooked canine looks totally out of place. Can anyone hazard a guess as to animal type? It is most likely pleistocene to modern.

During another rather unproductive trip to the Santa Fe, I stumbled upon this rather unusual tooth. Based on it's form, I would assume it belongs to some kind of small whale or other marine mammal. Anyone have something similar or know to whom it belongs? Appreciate it.
